Mainpiece Title: Don Quixote In England

Performance Comment: advertised as "with the tragic adventures of the Knight of the Woeful Countenance, and the Comic humours of his merry Squire Sancho Panca. An Entertainment intirely adapted to the taste of all Ladies, Gentlemen, Bucks, Bloods, and Choice Spirits; but more expecially those who are fond of Liberpy and Roast Beef. In which will be introduced a group of odd, but diverting characters, being the work of a great master in the Creative Faculty. To render the dish more agreeable to every palate, it will be garnished with singing and dancing-; particularly a song on the late Victories obtained by our Fleets and Armies, and a Welcome to Southwark Fair. With a Hornpipe-a British Genius; whose valour was conducive to the reduction of Quebec. The whole to conclude with the View of a magnificent Monument erected to the Memory of the late General Wolfe. And a Monody- to be spoken on the death of that brave and much lamented Hero.".
