25 March 1662 @ The Red Bull Theatre

Event Comment: Jacques Thierry and Will Schellinks saw this performance (Seaton, Literary Relationships, pp. 334, 336). Although this performance falls in Passion Week, the date seems correct. Because the patent theatres normally closed during Passion Week, this performance has been tentatively assigned to the red bull Company. As Jolly played Part I (A Girle Worth Gold) at Norwich, this is probably a presentation of Part I

Performances

Mainpiece Title: The Fair Maid Of The West

Event Comment: Although Pepys attended this performance, he did not name the theatre. As this play was acted at Vere St. on 15 March 1661@2 and there also on 19 May 1662, it has been assigned to that playhouse. Pepys, Diary: Thence to the play, where coming late, and meeting with Sir W. Pen, who had got room for my wife and his daughter in the pit, he and I into one of the boxes, and there we sat and heard The Little Thiefe, a pretty play and well done
