29 January 1740 @ Drury Lane Theatre

Event Comment: At the particular Desire of several Persons of Distinction. [A letter to the London Daily Post and General Advertiser, 29 Jan., states that the occasion of the riot at dl, 23 Jan., was the failure of Denoyer and Mlle Chateauneuf to dance. The latter had been ill but on 22 Jan., thought that she could dance on the following night, and her name was placed in the bill; on Wednesday a misunderstanding about the absence of her and Denoyer caused the disturbance. A gentleman concerned in the affair sent the manager #100 for his share of the damage.
