Congratulations to "the young actor-manager" (Laurence Irving) after seeing 'Peter the Great' last night at the Lyceum.
Would have visited Irving after but thought he would not care for listening to banalities after such a weighty and trying part. |

Thanks to Irving's kindness she spent an enjoyable evening at the Lyceum last night but was sorry Irving's throat prevented him from playing. She praises Laurence's performance as 'Peter the Great'. She thinks he has a brilliant father and congratulates them both. She thanks him for charming bouquet placed in her Box. Hopes he will soon recover and she may see him in 'that powerful role'. |
