    Great samples of actual late 19th C stage 'trickwork': with traps, flaps, and rollouts, as well as masks,'big heads,' tricked costumes and props. All this really happened during Pantos with effects growing more numerous and involving greater scale and complexity in competition with other companies and stars.
