Event Comment: [In mainpiece the playbill retains Palmer as Woodville , but "The curtain was dropped in the middle of the first act, and after a delay of near half an hour, Barrymore informed the audience Palmer was not come to the theatre...and therefore solicited permission for Benson to [act] Woodville, which he had undertaken at a few minutes' notice. Benson (who had played the two first scenes of Vane) agreeable surprised the audience by his representation of Woodville" (Thespian Magazine, June 1793, p. 2).
