Framed Print of Scene from Free Labour, at the Adelphi Theatre, 1870. Creator: Unknown
Scene from Free Labour, at the Adelphi Theatre, 1870. London stage show. The new four-act drama of Free Labour. by Mr. Charles Reade...has one scene which is entitled to special recognition for its indisputable originality; it is that of the forge set up by Henry Little in the old church. The interior of the building, illumined by the fire of the forge and further rendered picturesque by the scattering of the sparks thrown out from the anvil, forms a picture which if painted by Rembrandt or some other great artist would command universal admiration. While occupied in his work. Little becomes aware of supernatural influence, and sees two visions: Raby, the founder of his race, appears in one; and the marriage of Grace Carden with his rival in the other. Our illustrator has taken this point for his picture, and with decided judgment. On the stage, however, the incident is somewhat objectionable, as it interrupts the action of the play without contributing to its catastrophe. Altogether...the scene is about the most extraordinary ever exhibited, and ought to make Mr. Reade's speculation one eminently profitable. But the warm weather is unfavourable for theatrical experiments, and the theatres in general are suffering from its effects'. From Illustrated London News, 1870.
