'Mr Sheridan … and his collaborators have succeeded in introducing an old friend to the public in a new and very pleasing guise… Departing entirely from any traditional form of the story, there are introduced scenes which suggest Meyerbeer's Robert Le Diable, Planquette's Rip Van Winkle and from that downwards to A Trip to Chinatown. Every now and then the action of the plot - if there is a plot - is interrupted by the introduction of some little pleasantry' (Sydney Morning Herald 27 December 1902, p.6).
