Event Comment: "Nothing reduces acting to so miserable a show of mechanism as the constant applause at particular speeches...Mrs Siddons labours under a disadvantage [in dl theatre]. that she is not everywhere heard. To be so she would strain her voice unnaturally. She does not choose to make the sacrifice, and preserves her excellence with the near, whatever she may lose to the remote" (Oracle, 27 Sept.). Receipts: #372 0s. 6d. (280.13.0; 89.18.6; 1.9.0)
