Text Any textual data included in the document FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF MISS CUSHMAN’S “ROMEO.” <br /><br />I asked a lady, on her return from the Haymarket Theatre one evening, what was her opinion of Miss Cushman's performance of <em>Romeo</em>. The answer I received was, a pause, a light laugh, and —“Oh, Miss Cushman is a very dangerous young man." [...] Judging of her as an individual from her appearance on the stage, I should say that she is irregular, inharmonious, vehement, awkward— thus, <em>in one sense</em>, unfeminine: that she is grand, large-souled, and strong-passioned; a scorner of petty vanity, earnest, unconscious, and full of rich tenderness that lies not on the surface—thus, <em>in another sense</em>, unfeminine. [...] and Romeo, Miss Cushman's Romeo, is of the best, the most noble kind—that which is gracious, loving, strong. Yes, the lady was right—“Miss Cushman is a very dangerous young man."<br /><br />                                                                J.M.W Provenance What is the source of the piece of information, where is it derived from?
