SECOND SIGHT; OR, YOUR FORTUNE FOR A DOLLAR.
A Farcical Comedy, in One Act, by Bernard Herbert.
Four male and one female characters—Light comedian, low comedian, Irishman, Mexican nobleman and juvenile lady. Scene: A Clairvoyant’s Parlor in New York. Time of playing, one hour.
The frantic efforts of Mr. Birdwhistle, a timorous music teacher, to escape the fury of Don Fiasco de Caramba, an untamed Mexican; the dismal predicaments of Dionysius O. Rourké and the clairvoyant scenes will keep the audience in a continuous ripple. Companies in search of a serious piece should NOT select this play.
