07 December 1671 @ The (first) Drury Lane Theatre

Event Comment: The King's Company. There is uncertainty as to the date of the first performance, but in A Bibliography of John Dryden, p. 193, Macdonald cites as evidence for this date, Wood's Ath. Ox., IV, 209. The play was certainly first acted not later than this month, because John Evelyn saw it on 14 Dec. 1671. For further details, see 14 Dec. 1671

Performances

Mainpiece Title: The Rehearsal

Performance Comment: Edition of 1672: Prologue-; Epilogue-. In spite of the fame of this work, the actors (with a few exceptions) associated with the principal roles are not known. Buckingham, however, taught John Lacy how to act Bayes in ridicule of John Dryden. According to A Key to the Rehearsal (1704), Anna Reeves acted Amaryllis. Several actors are named in the text: Abraham Ivory (an old actor who possibly did not play in the work); William Wintershall; Joseph Haines, William Cartwright, and George? Shirley. John Littlewood (along with Joseph Haines) is referred to in a poem on the play--see16711214--as though he performed in it. William Wintershall; Joseph Haines, William Cartwright, and George?

"That beautiful and best drawn character that the world ever saw, Sir John Falstaff, was mangled by Ryder. He substitutes savageness to jollity, and stiff mimicry to the natural debauchery that should hang as easily on Sir John as the Roomy mantle he moves in...Lewis gave us more the manner of the pretty man of fashion than of a dissipated hero" (Prompter, 4 Nov.).
