Event Comment: Afterpiece: An alteration by Cumberland from his Summer's Tale (Genest, V, 321). Theatrical Review, 14 Dec.: We confess we pitied the situation of the performers, who all exerted their utmost efforts to support it in the representation; but it is not the eminent abilities of a Vernon, a Parsons, a Hunt, or a Fitzgerald, that can render a piece worthy of notice, which has nothing interesting in it, and is absolutely devoid of merit. Paid Salary list, #501 3s. 6d.; Mr S. French 6 days #1 10s.; Mrs Abington for cloaths #2; Rec'd stopages #13 18s. 6d. (Treasurer's Book). Receipt2: #128 17s. (Treasurer's Book)

08 January 1772 @ Drury Lane Theatre

Event Comment: Theatrical Review, 8 Jan.: Mr Baddeley's conception of Polonius's character is just and natural, and in every respect apparently agreeable to the author's intention. It is worthy to be remarked, that through the whole, he never sports with propriety, or through wantonness, degrades, this loquacious old Courtier into a buffoon, as some we have seen have done.
