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!

10 March 1764

Event Information
Theatre: King's Theatre
Theatrical Season: 1762-1763
Volume: 4
Comments: [Writer of letter to Public Advertiser states that it is not fashionable to attend on Tuesdays. On Tuesday, he continues, there were probably not more than twenty subscribers or a hundred who had paid. But the Upper Gallery never fails to do Honour to Opera. If not more than 20 people of Fashion in the House there are at least 300 in Upper Gallery." His suggestion is that reduction of cost to 2s. 6d. would induce whole musical families to attend and ultimately be beneficial for this form of entertainment.
