Event Comment: [See 27 May.] Benefit of a Grammar School Master. Terence's Andria in the original Language, with a New Latin Prologue, and an Occasional English Epilogue. After which will be spoken in English an allegorical Eulogy called Mimus. It is hoped the late disappointment (as it was in all its circumstances unaviodable) will be no detriment to the performance

Event Comment: Wednesday the Eunuch of Terence was acted by the scholars at the Charter House, to a very polite Audience with Great Applause (General Advertiser). [The London Daily Advertiser and Literary Gazette for 30 May noted: "Publish'd, Epilogue to the Eunuchus of Terence, acted lately by the Charter House Scholars, with great applause, spoken in his own cloaths, by the scholar who acted the part of Thais."

Performances

Event Comment: On this date William Hemmings' The Eunuch was licensed. The play was published in 1687, but there is no certainty that it was acted. The problem is made more complicated by the production of Sedley's Bellamira--see 12 May 1687-which was derived from Terence's The Eunuch. See the introductory note for the 1676-77 season for the possibility that The Eunuch was acted then

Performances

Event Comment: The United Company. The date of the first performance is not precisely known, but it was certainly before 17 June 1692, as the Gentleman's Journal, June 1692 (licensed 17 June) states: Regulus, with the Factions of Carthage, by Mr Crown, was acted the last week; that Tragedy is intermixed with a vein of Comedy. You have seen his Works in both. Terence tells us, Dubiam fortunam esse scenicam; and if that great Author had occasi on to complain, those of our Age may well comfort themselves if the Town deceives their expectation. A song, Ah me! to many deaths decreed, the music by Henry Purcell, and set by Mrs Ayliff, is in Purcell's Works, Purcell Society, XXI (1917), vii. But see 24 Aug. 1692
