Performances

Mainpiece Title: The Merry Wives Of Windsor

Event Comment: The Duke's Company. This performance is on the L. C. lists at Harvard, but the entry does not specify the day. See VanLennep, "Plays on the English Stage", p. 16. The play was not published until 1706, and the cast in an edition of that year represents one for performances nearer the date of publication. There is no indication of the date of the premiere

Performances

Mainpiece Title: The Amorous Widow; Or, The Wanton Wife

Event Comment: The King's Company. This performance is on the L. C. list, 5@141, p. 116. See also Nicoll, Restoration Drama, p. 345. There is some uncertainty as to whether this is the premiere, but another performance on 15 Jan. 1674@5 and its entry in the Stationers' Register 13 Jan. 1674@5 suggest that this was probably the first performance
