Manitoba Morning Free Press - Monday, April 8, 1895
Detroit, April 6 — Mr. Leslie, manager of Miss Rose Coghlan, who has been playing Oscar Wilde’s "A Woman of No Importance" here this week, was asked last evening by a representative of the united press if the play would be shelved because of the scandal affecting Wilde. He said it would be impossible, under the contract to take Wilde’s name off the play bills and out of the advertisements of "A Woman of No Importance," and therefore it had been decided that the play should be taken out of Miss Coghlan’s repertoire.
The Sun - Saturday, April 6, 1895
The last play of Mr. Wilde presented in this city is called "An Ideal Husband," and, like "Lady Windermere's Fan," it relies for its interest on its comments, satirical and otherwise, on contemporary society. In it the playwright pays a tender and touching tribute to virtuous women. It is now running at the Lyceum Theatre in this city. When questioned by a reporter last night, Mr. Bunce, the manager of the Lyceum, said:
"We shall continue to give the play. It is too good a work to drop. But Wilde's name will be erased. We do not think it right to flaunt it in the face of the public. Of course, the name is on to-night's programs, as we had no time to make a change."
