02 March 1661 @ Salisbury Court

Event Comment: The Duke's Company.

But above all it was strange to see so little a boy as that was to act Cupid, which is one of the greatest parts in it

01 February 1664 @ The (first) Drury Lane Theatre

Event Comment: Pepys, Diary: And took my wife out immediately to the King's Theatre, it being a new month, and once a month I may go, and there saw The Indian Queen acted; which indeed is a most pleasant show, and beyond my expectation; the play good, but spoiled with the ryme, which breaks the sense. But above my expectation most, the eldest Marshall did do her part most excellently well as I ever heard woman in my life; but her voice not so sweet so Ianthe's [Mrs Betterton's]; but, however, we came home mightily contented
