01 December 1739 @ Haymarket Theatre

Event Comment: A New Serenata. [Music by Giovanni Battista Pescetti.] Tickets half a guinea. 6 p.m. Mrs Pendarves to Lady Throckmorton, 28 Nov.: The concerts begin next Saturday at the Haymarket. Caristini sings, Peschetti composes; the house is made up into little boxes, like the playhouses abroad; Lord Middlesex is the chief undertaker, and I believe it will prove to his cost, for concerts will not do. --Delany, Autobiography, II, 66
