Event Comment: Powell: In Consequence of Palmer not coming in time to the Theatre, the Audience were kept in waiting and the Play, which was ordered by Mr Sheridan to begin 5 minutes before the usual time [6:30], could not be begun till within Ten minutes of Seven o'Clock. Benson being lame Fisher went on as Casimir and Caulfield doubled the Part with his own. Roman Actor read at 10 [this Play not acted this season; see Powell, 18 Oct.]; Douglas rehearsed at 12 (for Mrs Siddons and Palmer). Receipts: #412 16s. (325.17.6; 80.18.6; 6.0.0)
