About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from The Irish Attorney This excellent farce is from the pen of the talented author on The Nervous Man, Bayle Bernard, Esq., who is an American by birth, though of Irish descent. It was first performed at the Haymarket Theatre, London, on the 6th of May, 1840; its success was then unequivocal; and it has ever since been regarded as one of the most valuable additions to our stock of mirth-provoking after-pieces. Mr. Bernard dedicates this piece To the memory of Luke Bernard, attorney-at-law, Limerick, as a Reminiscence of his life and virtues, by his affectionate descendant. Of the performance of Pierce O'Hara, the hero of this farce, by the late Mr. Power (for whom it was expressly written), we can but say, it was perfection. Mr. Collins, Mr. Leonard, and a host of Irish Comedians, have since enacted the part, the former with very distinguished success; and amongst the latter, Mr. Nickinson, of the Olympic Theatre, deserves hourable mention. His style of dressing and enacting the four-bottled, five-barred, rollicking Galway gentleman, is certainly equal to that of any of the other candidates for the mantle of Poor Power. It is to this gentleman we are indebted for the copy from which this edition is printed. That copy was, by permission, carefully revised and corrected by him from the manuscript used by the original personator of the hero during his last engagement in New York. The alterations and additions by Mr. Power, add very much to the effectiveness of the piece; and we feel much pleasure in being enabled to present what we believe to be the only edition of The Irish Attorney, as per formed by that lamented actor.
