Event Comment: [Me Rossi was from the Opera, Naples.] "Her very first step proclaimed her a perfect mistress in the art of pantomime. Her dress was a manteau a la reine, lately imported by our travelling milliners. The body, bones and trimming are puce, the sleeves and lower part of the garment a white gawze. Her partner, Lepicq, dressed in the same uniform, discovered such profusion of talents, if we may be allowed the expression, as 'beggar all praise'" (Public Advertiser, 3 Dec)

Event Comment: [In the 1st ballet the playbill lists Mme Rossi, but she did not dance. As the 2nd ballet the playbill announces Il Ratto delle Sabine, but Mme Rossi was ill, which "rendered a verbal apology unavoidable. 'Mme Rossi was in hopes that her wish to court your favour would enable her to overcome her illness, but it has been as sudden as it is now alarming. She has just been let blood. The manager therefore intreats your indulgence, and that you will accept of Apelles and Campaspe instead of the Grand Ballet, which cannot possibly be performed.' . . . Henry performed the part of Alexander with the greatest propriety" (Public Advertiser, 19 Dec.).]
