11 March 1758 @ Haymarket Theatre

Event Comment: The young gentleman who played the part of Valdore , being indisposed, makes it necessary to defer the new play of the Insolvent (designed for this day) till Thursday the 16th, when it will be performed with a variety of new entertainments as will be particularly specified in the bills. The part being a principal one, and of a considerable length (as the notice of the Gentleman's Indisposition is but just receiv'd) makes it impracticable to have it acted sooner. The tickets that could not come in on the first night for want or room will be admitted on Thursday
