Event Comment: The King's Company. This performance is on the L. C. list, 5@141, p. 359. See also Nicoll, Restoration Drama, p. 345. There is no certainty that this performance is the premiere, but an additional performance on 20 Nov. 1675 and the entry of the play into the Stationers' Register, 29 Nov. 1675, suggest that the first production probably occurred in early or mid-November 1675. Downes (Roscius Anglicanus, pp. 10-11), gives a cast which is identical except for omissions. For Kynaston's acting of Morat (especially in the later years of the century), see Cibber, Apology, ed.

10 January 1676 @ Dorset Garden Theatre

Event Comment: The Duke's Company. This performance is on the L. C. list, 5@142, p. 81. See also Nicoll, Restoration Drama, p. 348. There is no certainty that this is the premiere of this play; in fact, there is uncertainty concerning the first production, for Nell Gwyn saw a play on 19 March 1673@4, The Country Knight, about which nothing otherwise is known and which might be this play. Nevertheless, the fact that the play was not entered in the Term Catalogues until May 1676 makes it unlikely that the play was first acted two years before its publication, especially since it became a moderately popular play
