Commentary:

The Tagesanzeiger text of Bohemia 19/11/1850 stated that following the performance of a play in the Theatre, Am Brief zu viel, noted to be being given for the first time but formerly Die Hochzeitsreise, the evening would end with a dance divertissement. This would have been a staged dance event performed by dancers of the Theatre. Almost certainly providing the music would have been the orchestra of the Theatre.
