Event Comment: DDaily Advertiser, 19 Feb.: To the Author, &c. Sir, In a late Paragraph in one of your Papers [4 Feb.] it was insinuated, that there was a Design on foot for erecting a New Theatre, which by some Wise Heads was suppos'd to come from a certain Manager, in order to revive the Playhouse Bill this Session of Parliament; I think it proper therefore, in Justice to the Gentleman levell'd at, to inform the Publick, that it is actually intended for a Company of Comedians every Day expected here, late Servants to their Majesties Kouli Kan and Theodore, who in the mean time will entertain the Town in the true Eastern manner, at the New Theatre in the Hay-Market, with a celebrated Piece call'd A Rehearsal of Kings. I am, Sir, Yours, &c. Agent for the Company

08 March 1737 @ Haymarket Theatre

Event Comment: DDaily Advertiser, 8 March: We hear that the Great Mogul has acceeded to the Treaty of the Hay-Market, which causes various Speculations. Our best Advices assure us, that the Town will be entertain'd there Tomorrow, by a Gentleman who never wrote for the Stage, with a new Performance call'd a Rehearsal of Kings: which will be immediately succeeded by a Dramatick Piece call'd The Historical Register, for the Year 1736, written by the Author of Pasquin. We hear this has given great Alarm to all the Pantomimical Houses in London, Southwark, Rag Fair, &c
