19 April 1800 @ King's Theatre

Event Comment: The Public are most respectfully informed that, on account of the danger to Gentlemen frequenting the Scenes, as well as to the Performers, and the other persons necessarily employed in working the machinery, in the scenes and decorations, no stranger can with safety remain upon the stage during the representation of this Opera; it has therefore become unavoidably necessary to shut up the communication between the audience part of the Theatre and the Stage during the performance of Alessandro e Timoteo, but the avenues will be opened as usual as soon as the Opera is over

Event Comment: The Duke's Company. Pepys, Diary: To the Opera, and there saw Romeo and Juliet, the first time it was ever acted; but it is a play of itself the worst that ever I heard in my life, and the worst acted that ever I saw these people do, and I am resolved to go no more to see the first time of acting, for they were all of them out more or less. Downes (p. 22): Note, There being a Fight and Scuffle in this Play, between the House of Capulet, and House of Paris; Mrs Holden Acting his Wife, enter'd in a Hurry, Crying, O my Dear Count! She Inadvertently left out, O, in the pronuntiation of the Word Count! giving it a Vehement Accent, put the House into such a Laughter, that London Bridge at low-water was silence to it. This Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, was made some time after into a Tragi-comedy, by Mr James Howard, he preserving Romeo and Juliet alive; so that when the Tragedy was Reviv'd again, twas Play'd Alternately, Tragical one Day, and Tragicomical another; for several Days together. [No specific notices are known which would indicate when Howard's version appeared.
