Event Comment: Although Downes (Roscius Anglicanus, p. 32) states that this play was acted two days "together," the certain performance on Wednesday 15 Nov. suggests either that Downes misstated the number of performances or that the play was given on Monday and Wednesday but not on Tuesday, a somewhat unlikely event
