The Nobility are intreated to give directions to their servants to set down and take up at the Theatre, with horses' heads towards <i>Pall Mall</i>. On account of abuses practised in the names of the Subscribers it is become necessary to require the production of the Subscription Tickets both at the doors and the Boxes, At the Chair-door in <i>Market-lane</i> Subscribers only will be admitted. "The Pantomime is too much in the gaudy stile of <i>Italy</i>, and even in this respect the ballet-master is not well seconded by the machinist; the decorations were unfinished, and the scenes clumsily shifted...We were sorry to find that the new and superb room, which the proprietor was encouraged to build, and Which was opened in its unfinished state last year, is now entirely shut up, through the cabal of some few of the subscribers who refuse a miserable guinea for its illumination. The inconvenience of getting away from the Theatre will consequently be severely felt by the Beau Monde" (<i>Morning Chronicle</i>, 8 Dec.).
