Kommentar:

The Prager Morgenpost 5/10/1858 advertisement noted that this event, to which ladies were also invited, was to take place on Wednesday 6 October and would then be repeated on the following Wednesday. Admission at the door at the time of the production was 24kr. The event began at 7pm and was stated as ending the following morning. A second advertisement published in Prager Morgenpost on 6/10/1858 included two further details. Herrenkarten, gentlemen’s tickets, could be purchased in advance at the venue at the lower rate of 20kr. The participation in this event of the Estates Theatre dance master, Hess, was also noted by the Prager Morgenpost texts. These advertisements were posted by the restaurateur of the Apollo Hall, Johann Stuchlý.

The Tageskalendar published in Bohemia 6/10/1858 noted the participation of the Salon Orchestra of Walesch in the day’s dance entertainment to be given in the Apollo Hall.
