The London Stage Database team will be retiring the Legacy Search on May 1, 2025. Please take a moment before that date to reproduce any pre-2021 searches and export any resulting datasets you may wish to preserve for future use. We are making this change in order to free up computational resources for new features and data, currently in development with support from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Watch this space for more updates and, coming soon, new ways to keep up with the latest project developments!

February 1697 @ Drury Lane Theatre or Lincoln's Inn Fields

Event Comment: It is not certain what company produced this play, if it was acted; and it may not have been staged. A manuscript note on Bodleian Malone 116 attributes it to Southby. As the play was advertised in the Post Boy, 2-4 March 1696@7, and as a copy in the Library of Congress bears the manuscript date of 10 March 1696@7, the play, if produced, was probably first acted not later than February 1696@7
