The London Stage Database team will be retiring the Legacy Search on May 1, 2025. Please take a moment before that date to reproduce any pre-2021 searches and export any resulting datasets you may wish to preserve for future use. We are making this change in order to free up computational resources for new features and data, currently in development with support from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Watch this space for more updates and, coming soon, new ways to keep up with the latest project developments!

Comments: Calculated for the use and entertainment of the town in general, but particularly the admirers of The Minor, and more especially those who have been present at the humorous representations of that piece. 'The plain roast and boiled of the theatres will never do at this table. We must have huge seasoned ragouts, and rich sauces.' Perhaps I may produce something that may hit your palate--What think you of a Mimick? Vide the Introduction of The Minor. Nothing will be taken under full prices. No admittance behind the scenes. Care will be taken to keep the house cool. To begin exactly at Seven
