Scene from "A Hero of Romance," at the Haymarket Theatre, 1868. London stage production. 'The new play at the Haymarket Theatre, dramatised by Mr. Westland Marston from M. Octave Feuillet's novel, "Le Roman d'un Jeune Homme Pauvre," was noticed in our theatrical criticism last week. The scene in the second act, of which we give an Illustration, shows Mr. Sothern's performance as the hero of the story, the impoverished young Marquis, who has, by the name of Victor, been living in the household of old M. Gervais Dumont, and has fallen in love with his granddaughter Blanche. These two characters are represented by Mr. Chippendale and Miss Robertson. In this scene, it will perhaps be remembered, Victor experiences the mortification of being repulsed and treated with undeserved contumely, his behaviour having been wickedly misinterpreted and his attachment to Blanche ascribed to mercenary motives. Virtue is triumphant in the end, of course, and Victor wins the hand of Blanche'. From "Illustrated London News", 1868.
