Excerpt from Dick's Parlor Exhibitions: Containing a Large and Varied Collection of Elegant Home Amusements, Including Tableaux Vivants, Simple and Elaborate, Living Portraits, Living Statuary, Dame History's Peep-Show, Illustrated Ballads, Dramatic and Pantomimic Charades, The Secret of Second
The arrangements for an evenings performance of tableaux vivants, or living pictures, afford a scope for almost unlimited expenditure, or may be made effective and pleasing at comparatively trifling expense. We quote the following general directions from an article on the subject in a popular work on Parlor Amusements:
"Where the means will allow, a platform stage, with footlights and some scenery, is the most desirable, but if this cannot be managed, a parlor with folding-doors will make an excellent stage, while the other parlor, opening into it, makes an appropriate auditorium. In either case the following directions will be found useful in the arrangement of stage, scenery, furniture, curtains, background, costumes and light.
