Theatrical Season: 1782-1783
Volume: 5
Comments: Mainpiece: Not acted these 4 years [not acted since 3 Oct. 1776]. The Conscious Lovers, and the new Farce of The Best Bidder, announced for to-morrow, are obliged to be deferred on account of the Indisposition of Parsons. "We left the Theatre with the precise Impressions a Theatre ought to leave--We were perhaps more good, at any Rate certainly we felt more fond of Goodness" (Public Advertiser, 30 Nov.). "Mrs Siddons, in the third act of the Fair Penitent, was so far affected, with assuming the mingled passions of pride, fear, anger, and conscious guilt, that I might appeal to the spectators, whether, in spite of the rouge which the actress is obliged to put on, some paleness did not shew itself in her countenance" (Davies, II, 56). Receipts: #262 17s. (247/2/0; 15/10/0; 0/5/0)
