Event Comment: Mainpiece: Written by the late Sir John Vanbrugh. Afterpiece: Taken from the French of Moliere. Lady Stafford to Lord Wentworth, 4 Jan.: I hear their will be a vast riot to night at the Play, for young Cibber is to act and the Templars are resolved to hiss him off the stage. 6 Jan.: Young Cibber was vastly hiss'd a Thursday, but his old friend Impudence kept him from being either out of countenance or in the least disturb'd at the noise.-Wentworth Papers, p. 541

April 1670 @ Lincoln's Inn Fields

Event Comment: The Duke's Company. The date of the premiere is not known. Although the play was not in print until 1671, it was acted on 9 May 1670 and again at Dover on 19 or 20 May 1670. Downes (p. 29) placed the comedy among the plays of 1669, but the presence of Mrs Johnson (who, according to Downes, p. 31, did not join the company until 1670) and the performances in May 1670 suggest that the comedy was first given in the spring of 1670. Downes (pp. 29-30): The Play being Singularly well Acted, it took 12 Days together

Performances

Mainpiece Title: Sir Salomon; Or, The Cautious Coxcomb

Performance Comment: Edition of 1671: Prologue. No actors' names. Epilogue. Downes (Roscius Anglicanus, pp. 29-30): Sir Solomon-Betterton; Peregrine Woodland-Harris; Single-Smith; Wary-Sandford; Timothy-Underhill; Betty-Mrs Johnson; Julia-Mrs Betterton.

14 November 1671 @ Whitehall or St. James's

Event Comment: The Duke's Company. This play is on the L. C. list, 5@141, p. 2. See also Nicoll, Restoration Drama, p. 347. It is uncertain, however, just when this performance occurred. The L. C. lists at Harvard (see VanLennep, Plays on the English Stage, p. 19) suggest that the three performances at the head of this list belong to the spring of 1672 rather than the spring of 1671. If this is correct, this performance of Sir Solomon is out of place in the list, for it can hardly be placed at 14 Nov. 1672, yet it is surprising that, so soon after the opening of dg, the Duke's Company should act at court, especially when the King and Queen attended dg on the following day, 15 Nov. 1671. This performance of Sir Solomon should be judged as an uncertain one
