Event Comment: The Nobility and Gentry, Subscribers to this Theatre, are most respectfully acquainted that the engagements of the performers being now at an end, it is therefore impossible to complete, this year, the usual number of Subscription Nights; but that arrangements are at this time forming for next Season (the particulars of which will shortly be laid before them) when the deficient representations, unavoidable this year, will be made up by Extra Tickets to each Subscriber, to Entertainments which, it is hoped, that they will find more worthy of their liberality than those performances which, under the circumstances of the present season, have been permitted at this Theatre
