Comments:
Benefit for Mrs Webb. "The Jerry Sneak of the younger Bannister [whose 1st appearance in that part was at dl, 5 Apr. 1791] is comic perfection--the purity of his Cockney dialect, the inanity of his laugh, and the diverting nonsense of his Duckies, convulsed the audience with their odd effect" (Oracle, 18 Aug.). Oracle, 3 Aug.: Tickets to be had of Mrs Webb, No. 19, Catherine-street, Strand
