Event Comment: [In mainpiece the playbill retains Barrymore as Careless, but "Barrymore came too late to play Careless, in consequence of which Dignum did the part and sang Sedgwick's song, who came in time to the theatre [Powell's italics, see 7 Feb.], but begged to be excused going on from the violent pain he was in, occasioned by a swelling upon his finger. Dignum not in time to be discovered at Lady Sneerwell's rout, but came on after the Scene opened. Fisher, one of the waiters in the above Scene, was absent. Caulfield absent from the scene with Charles, and Kelly Jr. not being in time to be discovered With the rest, walked on after the Scene opened." [In afterpiece] the playbill retains Aumer as Hephestion, "Hephestion C. Kemble, Aumer at the Opera House" (Powell).] Receipts: #349 7s. (264.16; 81.10; 3.1)
