Public Advertiser, Theatrical Intelligence: Any Young
Lady inclined to the Stage, is offered an advantageous Opportunity to experience her Theatrical Abilities in a very desirable Situation. As this Advertisement appears not from an itinerant Manager, nor results from a Dearth of People, but a Wish to promote Merit, which often (for want of the proper Mode of Application, or Fear in the Parties of their Intentions being made public, in case their Services should not be received) lies hid
and unnoticed, it is hoped none but such as are possessed of a good Figure, as that will be greatly regarded,
and whose Capabilities are blended with a real Inclination will apply. Enquire for
W. at No. 114, in
Long-Acre between the hours of Eleven
and One on Wednesday or Thursday Morning in person, as no Attention will be paid to any Substitute.
The Stage: A Gentlewoman, who has played capital Characters with unblemished Reputation in the three Kingdoms, takes this Method of acquainting such Ladies who have Talents
and Inclination for the stage, that she undertakes to instruct them for the Profession many having been unsuccessful, more from Want of previous Instructions than Want of Genius. Her Attention to the great Articles of Reading
and Speaking, with Elegance
and Propriety, as well as Expression, Grace,
and Ease, will be found of infinite Service to those who are assisted by the least Underst
anding. Those Ladies who do not intend to display their Talents in Public may be instructed for their Amusement. Enquire for
E. H. No. 2
Queen Street, near
Windmill Street,
Haymarket. N.B. Any
Lady will be waited on by a Line directed as above. [These advertisements ran for a number of days.] Receipts: #183 16s. (Treasurer's Book)
