Performances

Mainpiece Title: Concert

Music: Vocal and Instrumental Music ....The orchestra was not very strong, consisting of no more than sixty persons, but it was incomparable-; Signiora Margarita del'Epine; sang, but she was by no means as pleasing as in the opera....She was the only person who sang. The instrumental music was extremely beautiful: Pepusch; who directs everything, and played the thorough-bass, excelled all the others. The violins too could scarce have been better. But most notable of all was a most charming concerto played with Pepusch by a flute and a viol di gamba. The person who plays the flute is a Frenchman called-Paisible; whose equal is not to be found....The second man, who played the viol di gamba with such uncommon excellence, is an Italian called-Signor Pietro

Mainpiece Title: Othello

Afterpiece Title: Lethe

Performance Comment: See17520401 but Frenchman-Garrick; Fine Gentleman-Woodward; Tattoo-_; Charon-_.
Event Comment: This farce of Lethe was wrote some years ago and play'd with Success, & was reviv'd this Night with great Alterations, & was but indifferently receiv'd by the Audience (Cross). The Poet, Frenchman, & Sot Mr Garrick perform'd most inimitably (Charles Adams to John Gilbert-Cooper, Theatre Notebook, XI (1957) p. 138). No After Money will be taken, and no Persons will be Admitted behind the Scenes (General Advertiser). Receipts: #180 (Cross); #186 7s. (Powel). N.B.: Mr G-k is the author of Lethe and did receive #36 8s. 6d. for this night which is the overplus after the charge of #63 for the House is paid, and which I must subtract from the rest (Powel). [A letter appeared in the General Advertiser this day giving advance notice and approval of a performance of Cato to be put on at Leicester House 7 Jan. by members of the Royal Family. The author noted that "proper Habits are absolutely in the making," and that the Princes would learn the principles of liberty from the lines of the play.
