27 November 1767 @ Covent Garden

Event Comment: DDon Felix pretty well by Powell....Lissardo inimitably by Woodward (the first time these 9 years). Read his part and that of Gibby. The play on the whole was pretty well performed. Baker does Beard's part in Midas. His not acting is a great loss to the public, as he was inimitable in some things. Stood in the well all night (Neville MS Diary). Receipts: #163 4s. (Account Book)
