Event Comment: [In 3rd piece the playbill retain Iliff, but "On the fifth night of the representation, while R. Palmer was reading the part of Lord Megrim (Iliff being ill) an alarm of fire occasioned a disgreeable tumult; the performers assured the audience there was no danger, it being the opposite theatre (the Opera House, which was consumed) that was in flames. The Ladies, however, still retained their apprehensions, and all were eager to depart; happily this anxiety produced no accident" (Oulton, 1796, II, 52). Iliff perhaps did not act in Vimonda.
