Event Comment: [The plays originally intended to be acted on this night were The Man of the World and Rosina, both advertised on playbill of 18 Nov. The playbill for this night, however, announces Love in a Village, with Mrs Billington as Rosetta, and Barataria, and carries the note "On Account of the sudden Indisposition of Macklin, The Man of the World is obliged to be deferred." But a third change had to be made; in place of Love in a Village and Barataria were substituted The Conscious Lovers and Hob in the Well, occasioned by the sudden indisposition of Mrs Billington" (World, 20 Nov.).] Receipts: #158 3s. (150.14.6; 7.8.6)
