07 January 1800

Event Information

Theatre: Covent Garden

Theatrical Season: 1799-1800

Volume: 5

Comments: "Lewis, with the exception of those repeated pauses and breaks in the middle of his sentences, which form a characteristic defect in his performance, and which, we fear, time and habit have rendered too inveterate to leave any hopes of reform, was very happy in his delineation of Archer. He possesses from nature a peculiar vein of sprightliness and gaiety, which admirably accords with characters of this description" (Dramatic Censor, I, 49). Receipts: #209 9s. 6d. (200.18.6; 8.11.0)
