Description of the theatre itself (image is not from this book): "There was a theatre on Prune Street, now Locust, between Fifth and Sixth, in 1820, which ran for two seasons with success. It was called the Winter Tivoli Theatre and was owned by Stanislaus Surin, manager of the Tivoli Garden. Charles S. Porter took it in 1822 and called it the City Theatre, but it only ran one year." —Philadelphia by Horace Mather Lippincott; foreword and illustrations by Thornton Oakley; Philadelphia Macrae Smith Company (c1926), page 111.
