[In mainpiece the playbill retains Packer as Melanthon and Mrs Siddon as Euphrasia , but "Mrs Powell was the substitute for Mrs Siddons, and acquitted herself very ably. Melanthon was read by Maddocks [which part can be doubled with Greek Herald ]" (Thespian Magazine, June 1793, p. 3).] Receipts: #109 5s. (101.0; 8.5)
