“‘No! No!’ cried Mrs. Wilton... ‘My daughter is with child!’… Every woman in turn was made to promise that this business would remain extremely confidential, whereupon Mrs. Wilton returned to her former self and began ordering her dresser about… Apparently, the oath of confidentiality had been sworn with fingers crossed. The rest of the company was happily jabbering about it a quarter of an hour later as they left the theatre. Nothing is confidential at the New Albion.” – New Albion Ny Times, The New York Times, Cast Of Hamilton, Contemporary Theatre, Gangs Of New York, Games Today, Bowery, Albion, Chatham

“Mr. Hicks was ivre during last night’s performance of Crosby Ravensworth. To make matters worse, the Lord Mayor was in attendance with his wife. After the performance, some of the leading actors were escorted to their private box...where Mr. Hicks bellowed a few lines of Shakespeare, something about women trotting, ambling, and lisping, and then clasped the Lord Mayor’s wife to him and kissed her ardently upon the lips.” – New Albion Issues Band, New York City, Opera House, Tapestry, History, Garden, Painting, Attendance

“I confess to being half in love with Fanny Hardwick. It is a doomed love and an exquisite love... I am forty-two, she is probably twenty. I have watched her leave the theatre, late in the evening, escorted by a handsome-looking young man in evening attire, a young man she has never bothered to introduce to me or to any of the denizens of the New Albion. She lives on the edge of a mystery for me and for others. Who is she, and where does she come from?” – New Albion, p 53 Lady Macbeth, Lord Byron, Vintage Portraits, Vintage Photographs, Louisiana Creole, African Ancestry, Bleecker Street, America Civil War

“The new apprentice arrived today. I begin to fear for Harlequin and Columbine and for all the rest of us who would endeavor to create a pantomime upon this stage. He is not a very prepossessing young man. Less than fiveand-a-half feet tall and narrow as the railings on my front step, he has a criminally low forehead and a lean and hungry look. Like Shakespeare, I can never quite find it within myself to trust a man with such abominable physiognomy.” – New Albion, pg. 32 William Shakespeare Frases, Shakespeare Macbeth, Shakespeare Quotes, Shakespeare Plays, Shakespeare Online, Shakespeare Portrait, Shakespeare Insults, Shakespeare Festival, John Taylor

“‘Mr. Farquhar Pratt has proven himself a liability as a playwright as well as an actor.’ ‘He may yet turn things around,’ I replied. ‘He is not without some wisdom in his lucid moments.’ ‘He cannot live much longer at this rate,’ Mr. Wilton said. ‘Have you looked into his eyes?’ ‘I have assumed that the yellowing of Mr. Farquhar Pratt’s eyeballs has more to do with his laudanum habit than with advancing old age.’” – New Albion, pg. 17-18 Old Medicine Bottles, Old Bottles, Vintage Bottles, Vintage Labels, Glass Bottles, Medicine Chest, Artemisia Absinthium, Alcohol, Ibuprofen

“Mr. Farquhar Pratt’s lips parted. His mouth moved inarticulately for some moments...He cleared his throat rather volubly and declaimed, ‘Mark Ingestre is dead!’ There was a titter in the auditorium. It could not justifiably be called more than a titter since fewer than fifty people can hardly produce a genuine belly laugh...Somebody in the balcony shouted out merrily, ‘’Ello, ‘ello, Pratty, Sweeney Todd was last month’s bill.’” – New Albion, pg. 3 Fleet Street, Theatre Kid, Musical Theatre, Theater, Theatre Posters, Musical Movies, Horror Movies, Movie Posters, Tim Burton
