Public Advertiser,
Theatrical Intelligence: Any Young Lady inclined to
the Stage, is offered an advantageous Opportunity to experience her
Theatrical Abilities in a very desirable Situation. As this Advertisement appears not from an itinerant Manager, nor results from a Dearth of People, but a Wish to promote Merit, which often (for want of
the proper Mode of Application, or Fear in
the Parties of
their Intentions being made public, in case
their Services should not be received) lies hid and unnoticed, it is hoped none but such as are possessed of a good Figure, as that will be greatly regarded, and whose Capabilities are blended with a real Inclination will apply. Enquire for
W. at No. 114, in
Long-Acre between
the hours of Eleven and One on Wednesday or Thursday Morning in person, as no Attention will be paid to any Substitute.
The Stage: A Gentlewoman, who has played capital Characters with unblemished Reputation in
the three Kingdoms, takes this Method of acquainting such Ladies who have Talents and Inclination for
the stage, that she undertakes to instruct
them for
the Profession many having been unsuccessful, more from Want of previous Instructions than Want of Genius. Her Attention to
the great Articles of Reading and Speaking, with Elegance and Propriety, as well as Expression, Grace, and Ease, will be found of infinite Service to those who are assisted by
the least Understanding. Those Ladies who do not intend to display
their Talents in Public may be instructed for
their Amusement. Enquire for
E. H. No. 2
Queen Street, near
Windmill Street,
Haymarket. N.B. Any Lady will be waited on by a Line directed as above. [
These advertisements ran for a number of days.] Receipts: #183 16s. (Treasurer's Book)
