The Westminster Play - scene from Terence's "Eunuchus", act 1, scene 1, 1854. Stage production at Westminster School, a public school in London....representation of one of Terence's plays by the Queen's College...Phaedria reproaches Thais; Parmeno sneers at his want of firmness...The attack upon the courtesan's house by Thraso and his strange band is a good piece of burlesque "fun"...Parmeno, with his strong woman-hating propensities, stands out in strong relief from the ordinary accommodating slaves of the Davus and Syrus breed...The appearance of a Queen's Scholar in female attire is always greeted with roars of laughter...The acting of the young gentlemen was of the kind which has long been familiar to the audiences of Westminster Plays - consisting rather of a careful adoption of prescribed interpretations, than of venturous attempts in new paths'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
