Excerpt from Shakespeare's Heroines on the Stage, Vol. 2 The actors down in the green-room under the stage of this newly built John Street Theatre. Of the town of New York, shivered in the damp air, and won dered why the curtain was not raised. In the easiest chair - though not by any means an easy-chair sat the popular Miss Cheer, reflecting on a new tri umph imminent in Cleopatra, but not foreseeing the great disaster of later years, when with beauty lost through advancing age, and with a married name to take away the impressionable charm of maidenhood, she was to return to the stage, after the Revolution, only to be received with dissatisfied silence and to be relegated to minor characters.
