04 March 1800 @ Covent Garden

Event Comment: Afterpiece: Taken from Ossian (composed by Byrn). View of the Sea and Rockv from which Oscar escapes, by leaping from a Precipice into arms of his Soldiers--a View of a Bridgev, with the Camp of Carrol--the Death of Carrol by the Hand of +Malvina, with his Fall into the Sea, and the Burning of the Camp of Carrol. [This was included in all subsequent performances.] The Overture by Reeve, with an accompaniment on the Harp by Weippert. "[The afterpiece] is a showy spectacle, but by no means equal in merit to the heroic ballet of Raymond and Agnes. It were greatly to be wished that some safer expedient could be adopted for breaking the violence of Oscar's fall, in the scene where he leaps from the rocky precipice into the arms of his soldiers. A serious disaster happened in this part last season, and had nearly occurred again this evening" (Dramatic Censor, I, 311). Receipts: #317 3s. 6d. (311.1.6; 6.2.0)

April 1672 @ Lincoln's Inn Fields

Event Comment: The King's Company. The date of the premiere is most uncertain. The play was apparently finished in July 1671-see C. E. Ward, The Life of John Dryden (Chapel Hill, North Carolina, 1961), p. 83-and the play may have been acted before April 1672. For the possibilities see Macdonald, Bibliography of Dryden, p. 110, and Nicoll, Restoration Drama, pp. 404-5. The Prologue and Epilogue are in Covent Garden Drollery, 1672. The song, Whilst Alexas lay prest, the music by Nicholas Staggins, was printed in Westminster Drollery (entered in the Stationers' Register, 3 June 1672) and in Choice Songs and Ayres, The First Book, 1673. Another song, Why should a foolish Marriage Vow, set by Robert Smith, is also in Choice Songs and Ayres, 1673
