22 March 1800 @ Covent Garden

Event Comment: "Sombre, saturnine, and soporific, instead of the mirthful, gay, and sprightly being pourtrayed by the author, [Holman's] countenance [as Comus] displayed the mechanical gravity of a parish clerk, or an assize judge, passing sentence of death on a sheep-stealer. Not a single smile relaxed the uniform austerity of his features, which seemed to impart their baneful influence to the whole confederate corps" (Dramatic Censor, I, 390-91). Receipts: #217 10s. (215.8; 2.2)
