The scenery, decorations, dresses and machinery of the opera
of Cymon, to be performed this evening, are allowed by the
most critical judges of theatrical splendor, to be more
magnificent than cou'd be expected at so early a period, on
the American stage. During its run at Philadelphia, several
gentlemen from London, attended the representation, and made
comparisons much to the honour of our infant Western
theatre. We are informed that as it is so very late in the
season, it can only be performed one night.
