08 March 1774 @ Drury Lane Theatre

Event Comment: For the Author of Sethona 3rd night (Treasurer's Book). ["This play may be properly styled a faggot of utter improbabilities, connected by a band of the strongest Northern fustian. Overawed by Scottish influence, Mr Garrick prevailed on himself to receive it. But though his theatre was apparently full several times during its nine nights' run, it brought so little cash into the treasury, that he would not have lamented its earlier condemnation. It expired on his premises, but hardly left enough behind it to defray expenses of its funeral."--Biographia Dramatica. A glance at the box receipts from the Treasurer's Book hardly bears out the Biographia Dramatica statement as to its financial failure.] Paid half years Poor's rate for St Martin's to Xmas last #32 8s. (Treasurer's Book). [The author's profit was reduced by #10 10s. on 26 March when it was found he had not been charged for use of a new farce.] Receipts: #194 19s. Charges: #73 10s.
