27 May 1799 @ Drury Lane Theatre

Event Comment: Last night Pizarro underwent "further curtailments. It was concluded by a little after ten o'clock" (Morning Chronicle, 28 May). 'It is unquestionably the most excellent play I ever saw for variety of attractions. The scenery and decorations are splendid and magnificent without being tawdry or puerile, and these ornaments are made to heighten, not supersede, real dramatic merit" (Henry Crabb Robinson, Diary, 1869, I, 58-59). Receipts: #402 2s. (354.10; 45.17; 1.15)
