It did run on and on. The standard play at the time was a five act play that could easily run four hours, not counting the intermissions, which were easily 30 minutes plus each to allow for the scenery to be changed. An evening at the theater lasting five to six hours was expected and the norm. (And nowadays some people complain about 90 minutes!)
