The Young Scamp is a sketch in one scene by E. Stirling.


The original text

It is apparently a Christy's style piece, described as an Ethiopian sketch or Negro farce in various sources.


A version of the text was apparently published by T.H. Lacy before 1849, and also published as no 85 in De Witt's Ethiopian and Comic Drama

A Selection of New and Popular Dramas and Farces, texts published by William Barth, 1844[1]

Full listing of plays available from T. H. Lacy, contained in Volume 77 of Lacy's Acting Edition of Plays, Dramas, Farces and Extravagances, Etc., Etc: As Performed at the Various Theatres (T. H. Lacy's 1849)[]
