Event Comment: The Duke's Company. This performance is on the L. C. lists at Harvard. See VanLennep, "Plays on the English Stage", p. 17. There is no indication as to whether this is the premiere. The play was licensed 6 March 1670 [1671]. Downes (Roscius Anglicanus, p. 27) refers to it as being the first "new Play" acted at Dorset Garden in 1666, an error as to both place and time of presentation. Downes adds: All the other Parts, being perfectly well Acted, Succeeded six Days with a full Audience. It seems unlikely that Cambyses was given six days consecutively at this time. A performance of The Forc'd Marriage on Monday 9 Jan. 1670@1 and one of The Humorists on Saturday 14 Jan. 1670@1 do not permit six uninterrupted days for Cambyses at this time

Performances

And on the Ninth Day of November 1671, they open'd their new Theatre with Sir Martin Marral, which continu'd Acting 3 Days together, with a full Audience each Day; notwithstanding it had been Acted 30 Days before in Lincolns-Inn-Fields, and above 4 times at court.
