Scene from the New Drama of "The Evil Genius", at the Haymarket Theatre, 1856. A...comedy likely to prove prosperous...fitted as the leading character is for the style of Mr. Buckstone's humour...The interest of the drama consists in the petty annoyances of the sort with which the fertile invention of Cooley's old friend Ripstone is continually occupied, in order to plague him into a recognition of his neglected boy, and break off the match that the ambitious nabob is desirous of effecting with a woman of fashion and family, whose only motive for the alliance is the wealth that it will bring to herself. Tom is, therefore, really serving not only the orphaned boy, but the unprincipled father himself, though not exactly in the way that the latter would prefer...The scenery, by Callcott, Morris, and O'Connor, is magnificent'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856

EDITORS COMMENTS
This scene is taken from the New Drama of "The Evil Genius," performed at the esteemed Haymarket Theatre in 1856. The production, created by artist Smyth, showcases a pivotal moment in this comedy, which was expected to be financially successful due to the suitability of its leading character for the witty humor of Mr. Buckstone. The narrative revolves around the intricate machinations of Ripstone, an old friend of Cooley, who delights in causing petty annoyances to plague the latter into acknowledging his neglected son. Ripstone's ultimate goal is to thwart the ambitious nabob's plans to marry a woman of fashion and fortune, who is solely motivated by the wealth that such a union would bring her. In this scene, Tom, the orphaned boy, is seen in the midst of one of Ripstone's schemes, serving not only the best interests of the boy but also, albeit unwittingly, those of his unprincipled father. The complexity of the plot lies in the fact that the father's preferences for the resolution are not aligned with those of his son's benefactor. The breathtaking scenery in this image was masterfully crafted by Callcott, Morris, and O'Connor, adding an extra layer of grandeur to the already intriguing production. The Illustrated London News reported that the scenery was magnificent, further emphasizing the visual appeal of this theatrical production.
