16 February 1748 @ Drury Lane Theatre

Event Comment: (great snow [show?] for ye Agreat snow [show?] for ye Author) (Cross). Benefit for the Author (General Advertiser). There was a new comedy last Saturday, which suceeds, call'd The Foundling. I like the old Conscious Lovers better, and that not much. The story is the same, only the Bevil of the New piece is in more hurry, and consequently more natural. It is extremely well acted by Garrick and Barry, Mrs Cibber and Mrs Woffington [Walpole to Sir Horace Mann, Walpole Letters (ed Cunningham, II, 105).] Receipts: #160 (Cross); house charges #63 (Powel); cash #119 5s. 6d.; tickets #32 (Clay MS)

05 March 1748 @ Drury Lane Theatre

Event Comment: Monday next Venice Preserved, for the Benefit of Mrs Cibber. N.B.: As many inconveniencies have arisen, from receiving Box Tickets in the Galleries, no Tickets will be admitted but in the Boxes, Pit and upon the Stage (General Advertiser). [The inconveniencies would seem to be connected with an overflow into the galleries of gentlemen with an animus towards The Foundling. Garrick was making an early managerial effort to control the house and render it quiet.] Receipts: #160 (Cross); #169 2s. 6d. (Powel)
