12 June 1761 @ Ranelagh Gardens

Event Comment: Benefit for Tenducci. Notwithstanding the great expence attending the above performance, each ticket will be but Five Shillings

Performances

Mainpiece Title: The Judgment Of Paris

Song: Several favourite songs consisting of four intervals

Entertainment: Upon the Octagan Square in said Gardens will be displayed the following curious invention in Fireworks, viz. A long pole will be fixed in the middle of the square; at the bottom of which will stand an artificial Harlequin, which with a touch becomes transparent, swarms up the pole and lights up a garland of flowers. N.B. 'Tis humbly desired that the Public will not mistake this gentleman Harlequin for the scoundrel that formerly pretended to go into a bottle. After the above ingenious Fancy will be performed in the theatre the celebrated Masque call'd The Judgment of Paris, composed by Dr Arne, which being finished, upon the canal in the Gardens will be displayed several superb Fireworks called the Chinese Festival, invented and executed by Sg Carlo Genorinij, the famous Roman artificer. He will avoid all common exhibitions, as Rockets &c., which for want of novelty give no entertainment to the Public, and confine himself to works of real ingenuity, so innocent in their nature, that the ladies may stand ever so near, without the least possibility of danger, or being alarmed with uncouth noises. The intended exhibition will be as follows: A light ediface will be fixed near the Chinese Temple, and a boat will sail at the end of the canal, containing several persons performing on musical instruments, the boat moving to the Temple, and giving fire to the ediface, it will display several ingenious conceits; particularly the operations of the fireworks will change to ten different colours. Other fancies are reserved till the perfformance, which, it is hoped, will give general satisfaction to the public

15 October 1763 @ Covent Garden

Event Comment: To the Printer of the Public Advertiser, Mr Woodfall: Why don't you constantly, every day, print a list of the Mistakes which the guessing Messieurs Ledger and Gazatteer make in their account of the playbills? Woodward, says the Gazetteer, is to play Harlequin, and Miles the Clown this evening [Friday 14 Oct.] in Harlequin Sorcerer; Tenducci and Brent the Shepherd and Shepherdess. The Ledger informs me that Woodward will play Lissardo in the Wonder, when you say Dyer; and that Mrs Younger is to play Inis, when you advertise Mrs Green will play that character. I dare say, Mr Garrick very shortly will make his appearance in the Gazetteer or Ledger. Your Humble Servant, &c. [Garrick was in France at this time.
