22a, Curzon Street, the new play at the Garrick Theatre, 1898. 'Act III. The plot ends in Mrs. Featherstone's Town House; the Piddocks discovered but pardoned. Colonel Sir Patrick Neville (Mr. A. Bourchier). Mrs. Featherstone (Miss Lottie Venne). Mary Piddock (Miss Fanny Brough). William Piddock (Mr. Herbert Sparling). The play is interesting as coming (partly) from the pen of Mr. Brandon Thomas, the author of "Charley's Aunt," and also on account of the strong cast, which includes Miss Lottie Venne (as leading lady), Miss Fanny Coleman, Miss Fanny Brough (as the villain), Mr. Arthur Bourchier (as lead), and Mr. Martin Harvey. The farce idea of the piece consists in Mrs. Featherstone's London house being sold by the caretaker (Miss Fanny Brough) and her husband, the ticket-of-leave man Piddock, to Sir Patrick Neville. Mrs. Featherstone comes up from the country and thinks Sir Patrick (who is in love with her) has called on a visit, while he believes that Mrs. Featherstone is the visitor.' From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
