Afterpiece Title: Harlequin Ranger

Dance: II: The Swiss, as17581102

Event Comment: Mainpiece: By Particular Desire. [The London Chronicle 1758, p. 462, comments fully and very favorably on the performance of The Wonder, specifying the acting of Garrick, Miss Macklin, Palmer, and Mrs Davies, adding: "To this comedy was added a Pantomime Entertainment called Harlequin Ranger, which in spite of whatever may be urged to the contrary, I think diverting. And though it is against the general opinion, Woodward's pantomimes are, in my judgment, much superior to Rich's."] Receipts: #180 (Cross); #153 9s. (Winston MS 8)
