Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Apprentice: A Farce in Two Acts There was Room to apprehend, before the Representation of the following Farce, that the Subject might appear extravagant and merely ideal; but the real Existence of it is displayed in such a lively and picturesque Manner by the Author of the Prologue, and was at once so universally felt by the Audience, that all necessity of saying any thing farther on this Head is now entirely superseded. What at present remains to be feared, is, that the Apprentice will not make so lively a figure in the closer, as on the Stage, where the Parts in general were allowed to be well performed; where Simon was re-presented with a perfection of folly, where the Skill of Mr. Yates exhibited the Impotence of a Mind, whose Ideas extend very little beyond the multiplication Table, and whose Passions are ever in a crazy Conflict, unless when they all subside into a sordid Love of Gain; and where Mr. Woodward´s admirable comic Genius gave such a Spirit to the whole, that there is Reason to think, whenever he relinquishes the Part, the Apprentice may again elope from his Friends, without any one´s desiring him to Return to his Business. The Author has however endeavoured to render all its Defects as excusable as he could, and he wishes no stronger Criticism could be brought against him; than the two following Observations, which he thinks very singular and somewhat entertaining.
