The Weston Brothers.
The New Orleans Picayune, noticing
the Weston Brother’s performance in
that cj,ty, which company appears at the
Noble street theatre on Thursday next,
says:
“The Weston Brothers have been seen
here before, and last season they made
many friends, who last night joined with
the regular habitues of the theatre in
giving them a royal welcome. To say
that the house was crowded but faintly
expresses the exact condition. It was
packed, and that, too, with a very pretty
and intelligent audience.”
The play, “The Way of the World,” is
a rather sensational comedy-drama, with
an exciting and complex plot, which
serves the Weston Brothers well, as it
affords them an opportunity to introduce
their numerous specialties. As musicians,
the Westons’ rank high in the profession,
and last night their skill as displayed in
rendering numerous.selections on various
instruments, was recognized by the audi
ence.
The company throughout is well bal
anced and sufficiently strong for the ‘re
quirements of the play.
