Event Comment: ["Towards the begining of the second act of Marian, Miss Poole, while on the stage, was taken suddenly ill, and literally fainted away; and it was with much difficulty that Mr Thompson [on 18 Nov. 1793 he is listed as acting Oliver], who stood near her at the time, prevented her falling down. She was carried off motionless, and an apology being made to the audience by Incledon, the piece was brought to a conclusion" (Morning Herald, 17 Nov.).] Receipts: #201 19s. (194.7.6; 7.11.6)
