Scene from "David Garrick," at the Haymarket Theatre: Garrick...[and] Ada Ingot..., 1864. Creator: Unknown
Scene from "David Garrick," at the Haymarket Theatre: Garrick (Mr. Sothern) entreating Ada Ingot (Miss Moore) to return to her father, 1864. London stage production. 'Those of our readers who are curious to know how Mr. Sothern looks now that he has removed his moustache...will be interested in the Engraving [of] the new play of "David Garrick." Mr. Sothern, as all playgoers know, assumes the trying part of the great English actor...his impersonation is throughout easy and natural. It may seem a curious compliment to pay to one actor who represents another, to say that the performance is remarkably un-stagey - except, of course, when the exigencies of the scene require a display of theatrical art in its ordinary sense...in the scene where he simulates drunkenness he proves himself fully equal to the fresh call upon his powers..."David Garrick,"...has served Mr. Buckstone's purpose by drawing crowded houses...The Sketch we have engraved represents that passage, in the last scene of the play, where Garrick, who has been feigning bad manners that he may cure Aga Ingot of her romantic passion for himself, consoles her for the mortification she has suffered, and persuades her to go home to her father; while the father stands behind to listen'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864
