Event Comment: Mainpiece: Never acted here. [The playbill lists R. Palmer as Rodolpho in mainpiece, and as Young Clackit in afterpiece, but he "was prevented appearing either in the tragedy or entertainment, having had the misfortune to break his arm" Chondon Magazine, July 1784, p. 75). For Egan and Riley as his substitutes see 14 July. Miss Woollery is identified on playbill of 24 July. Prologue by George Colman, the elder (Colman, Prose, III, 254). Miss Kemble was from DL.]
