Creator New York Herald Job Office
Accession number 28.172.4 
Unique identifier MNY332514 
Description The scenery by the celebrated Heister. Machinery by Mr. Squires. Properties &c. by Mr. S. Wallis. In the course of the drama (close of second act) the extraordinary effect will be introduced of the breaking up of an ocean of ice in the midst of which, violently tossed by the waves, several of the characters are seen, and finally are engulfed by their fury. To conclude with the new farce of "P. P.; or, The Man and the Tiger". "King Charming" with its unrivalled gorgeous scenery and a change in the cast of characters, giving additional novelty to its unprecedented popularity, will still constitute a prominent attraction. Prices of admission: boxes and parquette, 50 cents; family circle and upper tier, 25 cents; private boxes, $5.00 and $6.00. A portion of the third circle has been appropriated for the accommodation of respectable colored  persons, admission 25 cents.
