Event Comment: [As mainpiece the playbill announces Tancred and Sigismunda, but "In consequence of Mrs Crawford's being taken suddenly ill yesterday forenoon, Tancred and Sigismunda...could not be acted; The Maid of the Mill was substituted in its stead, but most of the boxes which had been taken were given up, and the change cost the managers upwards of a hundred pounds; a matter which Mrs Crawford ought to take into her serious consideration, and to recollect besides, that whenever her name is on the bills, and she is [not] so much indisposed that her appearance on the stage would be fatal to her health, it is her duty not to disappoint her publick" (Morning Chronicle, 30 Jan.).
