Event Comment: "[Mrs Jordan] plays Miss Hoyden with great effect . . . but the character in her hands is only the Romp in other situations . . . We never saw anything more naturally assumed, or more agreeably wicked, if we may so phrase it, than the whole of [Miss Farren's] deportment in her scenes with Loveless" (Morning Chronicle, 11 Jan.). Receipts: #215 3s. (212/9; 2/14)
