The Infant Power
Légende
The Infant Power, 1844. 'This really wonderful child, who is only nine years old, is now playing at the Strand Theatre. She is a native of Dublin, where she has made a "great sensation," and comes before a London audience stamped with the applause of most competent judges - the people of Dublin, who have pronounced her to be the Infant Power. She is said to have shown extraordinary talent at a very early age. Her father's mercantile reverses force her before the public; and while we would not be supposed to encourage infant wonders, we may venture to prophecy that she will be eminently successful. She first appeared in the character of Dr, O'Toole, in the well known farce of the "Irish Tutor," which she played with tact, humour, and self-possession almost incredible. She sings well - her Irish jig is perfection'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I.
