12 February 1791 @ Covent Garden

Event Comment: [As mainpiece the playbill announces the 5th night of The School for Arrogance (see 14 Feb.), but it was "set aside, on account of the indisposition of Johnstone, and The Provok'd Husband was the substitute, in which Holman and Mrs Esten represented the characters of Lord and Lady Townly." In afterpiece the playbill retains Johnstone as Edwin, but "Incledon warbled the airs allotted to the part of Edwin" (Diary, 14 Feb.).] Receipts: #205 1s. 6d. (195.16.6; 9.5.0)
