Event Comment: [There are two BM playbills (Harris, Vol. V) for this night. The first announces First Love, in place of The Iron Chest, advertised on playbill of 15 Mar. The second carries the notice: The Publick are most respectfully informed that, on account of the Indisposition of a principal Performer, First Love cannot be performed. This evening will be presented [as above]. "The second performance of The Iron Chest was to have taken place on Thursady; but not being quite raady, the intended substitute was First Love. The absence, however, of some performers occasioned another change, and the substitute was A Trip to Scarborough. The return being non est inventus with respect to Barrymore, the character of Colonel Townly was wholly omitted, but not missed" (True Briton, 19 Mar).] Receipts: #249 18s.
