Event Comment: Andrew Marvell to William Popple, 24 July. Scaramuccio acting dayly in the Hall at Whitehall, and all Sorts of People flocking thither, and paying their Money as at a common Playhouse; nay even a twelve-penny Gallery is builded for the convenience of his Majesty's poorer Subjects (Marvell's Works, ed. H. M. Margoliouth, [Oxford, 1927], II, 320). For a warrant to Nicholas Staggins for writing "a chaccon" for "Scaramoucha" see Boswell, Restoration Court Stage, p. 122

Performances

Event Comment: The King's Company. This performance is on the L. C. list, 5@141, p. 359: Augustus Caesar. See also Nicoll, Restoration Drama, p. 346. The music for a song in act I, scene I, was composed by Nicholas Staggins, and printed in Choice Ayres and Songs, The Second Book, 1679. There is no certainty that this was the premiere, but it may well have been. The play was entered in the Term Catalogues, May 1676
