11 October 1660 @ The Cockpit in Drury Lane

Event Comment: Pepys, Diary: We met with Mr Salisbury, who took Mr Creed and me to the cockpitt to see The Moore of Venice, which was well done.

Pepys (6 Feb. 1668@9) refers to his playing that role, and a reference to Clun as Iago appears in A Most Execrable Murther in A Little Ark, ed. G. Thorn-Drury, pp. 30-31.

02 March 1661 @ Salisbury Court

Event Comment: The Duke's Company.

But above all it was strange to see so little a boy as that was to act Cupid, which is one of the greatest parts in it
