This  is  a  digital  copy  of  a  book  that  was  preserved  for  generations  on  library  shelves  before  it  was  carefully  scanned  by  Google  as  part  of  a  project 

to  make  the  world's  books  discoverable  online. 

It  has  survived  long  enough  for  the  copyright  to  expire  and  the  book  to  enter  the  public  domain.  A  public  domain  book  is  one  that  was  never  subject 

to  copyright  or  whose  legal  copyright  term  has  expired.  Whether  a  book  is  in  the  public  domain  may  vary  country  to  country.  Public  domain  books 

are  our  gateways  to  the  past,  representing  a  wealth  of  history,  culture  and  knowledge  that's  often  difficult  to  discover. 

Marks,  notations  and  other  maiginalia  present  in  the  original  volume  will  appear  in  this  file  -  a  reminder  of  this  book's  long  journey  from  the 

publisher  to  a  library  and  finally  to  you.

PREFACE 

The  aim  of  this  work  is  to  provide  the  student  and  the 
general  reader  with  a  handy  means  of  ready  reference  to 
the  leading  facts  of  the  history  of  the  theatre  in  the 
United  Kingdom  and  the  United  States.  The  scope  of  the 
"  Dictionary  "  is  so  far  comprehensive  that  it  seeks  to  give 
information  about  playhouses  and  their  designers,  the 
writers  of  plays,  plays  themselves,  i)erformers  in  them, 
their  critics,  their  scenic  and  musical  illustrators,  theatrical 
terms,  and  stage  literature  generally. 

The  accounts  of  Playhouses  are  ranged  here  under  the 
names  of  the  cities  and  towns  possessing  them,  and  form 
short  sketches  of  the  theatrical  history  of  the  more  impor- 
tant localities.  All  the  more  prominent  theatrical  architects 
find  a  place  in  these  pages. 

In  the  case  of  Writers  op  Plays,  the  main  attempt 
has  been  to  supply  a  chronological  list  of  their  works,  with 
the  dates  (where  discoverable)  of  publication  or  perform- 
ance, or  both.  Only  in  the  instance  of  the  more  notable 
dramatists  of  the  jmst  have  biographical  data  been  included ; 
in  that  of  living  playivrights,  the  details  are  confined  to 
their  productions.  The  foreign  authors  introduced  are 
those  who  have  become  well  known  to  the  English  and 
American  public  through  translations  or  adaptations  of 
their  works.

PREFACE 


Pbrformbrs  in  Plats,  whether  actors  or  vocalists,  or 
both,  are  dealt  with  on  the  same  principle  as  the  Play- 
writers.  Of  the  living,  no  biographical  particulars  are 
furnished,  beyond  an  occasional  record  of  the  date  or  place 
of  birth ;  otherwise  the  particulars  relate  solely  to  rblea  (and 
especially  "original"  roles)  which  they  have  undertaken. 
Deceased  players  are  treated,  as  a  rule,  more  fully,  selected 
criticisms  being  sometimes  given,  as  well  as  references  to 
biographical  and  critical  authorities. 

Thbatrical  Managers,  as  the  producci*s  of  plays  and 
operas,  necessarily  figure  here;  as  do  the  leading  Scenic 
Artists  and  Musical  Composers,  the  latter  ranging  from 
the  Avriters  of  operas  and  operettas  to  the  providers  of 
"incidental  numbers"  for  plays.  Most  of  the  musicians 
included  are  English  or  Amencan ;  but  mention  is  also  made 
of  foreigners  whose  works  have  been  produced  Avith  English 
librettos  on  one  side  or  other  of  the  Atlantic. 

Wrffers  on  the  subject  of  the  Tlieatro  generally,  or  of 
plays  and  players  particularly,  receive  due  attention;  and 
side  by  side  Avith  the  historians,  biographers,  and  critics 
will  be  found  the  pamphleteers  and  satirists  in  prose  and 
verse. 

In  the  ca^e  of  Plays,  the  endeavour,  in  general,  has 
been  to  indicate  the  author,  the  date  and  place  of  first 
performance,  and  in  some  instances  the  date  of  first  publica- 
tion. Sometimes  only  the  title  and  the  name  of  the  writer 
are  given;  usually  there  are  details  of  the  first  "cast;" 
and,  in  all  the  more  important  cases,  record  is  made  of  the 
principal  revivals  of  the  pieces,  and  of  the  performers 
appearing  in  them.  Special  pains  have  been  bestowed  upon 
the  stage  history  of  Shakespeare's  plays  and  of  the  other 
classics  of  our  dramatic  literature.    Further,  plays  with  the 


PREFACE  vit 

same  title  or  on  the  same  subjects  are,  for  the  convenience 
of  the  reader,  grouped  together. 

Separate  entries  are  made  of  Charactbrs  m  PLAfs, 
preference  being  given,  of  course,  to  the  most  notable.  Some 
are  inserted  only  by  way  of  illustrating  the  stage  nomen- 
clature of  the  past.  A  feature  is  also  made  of  First  Lines 
OF  Songs  in  Plats  ;  and  some  explanations  are  offered  of 
Terms  used  fiimiliarly  in  connection  either  with  plays  or 
with  the  fabric  or  appointments  of  the  Theatre. 

No  claim  to  an  impossible  "completeness"  is  made  for 
this  work.  In  all  its  departments  a  careful  selection  has 
been  necessary,  and  that  has  been  made  with  a  view  alike  to 
the  limits  of  space  and  to  the  probable  requirements  of  the 
readier.  Nor  is  it  pretended  that  the  "  Dictionary "  relates 
the  theatrical  events  of  yesterday  or  the  day  before.  No 
work  of  reference,  not  even  an  "  annual,"  can  be  absolutely 
"  up  to  date,"  Scattered  over  these  pages  are  many 
references  to  the  stage  history  of  the  present  year ;  but  the 
object  throughout  has  been  to  recoi-d  rather  the  perma- 
neutly  than  the  temporarily  interesting. 

Finally,  the  mass  of  material  collecte<l — very  much  of  it 
from  unprinted  sources — has  been  so  gi-eat  as  to  necessitate 
condensation  and  compression  to  the  fullest  extent  consistent 
with  clearness  and  accuracy.  As  regai-ds  the  latter  quality, 
every  effort  has  been  made  to  secure  it ;  but,  in  the  multitude 
of  facts  and  figures  contained  within  these  covers,  it  would 
be  almost  miracnlons  if  no  misprints  were  detected.  More- 
over, theatrical  chroniclers  often  differ  as  to  dates ;  others, 
especially  when  they  are  autobiographers,  offer  none  or  few ; 
many  indulge  in  a  perplexing  vagueness.  In  truth,  those 
to  whom  the  subject  of  this  "  Dictionary "  is  most  familiar 


viii  PREFACE 

will  be  the  first,  one  may  be  sure,  to  pardon  any  little  slip, 
of  omission  or  commission,  into  which  the  author  may  by 
chance  have  been  betrayed. 

It  should  be  added  that  the  second,  and  concluding, 
volume  of  this  work  is  passing  through  the  press,  and  wall 
be  issued  in  the  early  autumn.

ACTING  AS  A  PROFESSION 


till  the  deaths  had  decreased  to  thirty  per 
week.  Thus  it  is  recorded  of  the  year  1625 
that  the  *' common  players"  were  then 
fdlowed  to  come  to  court,  because  "the 
plague  is  reduced  to  six."  In  1831  the 
churchwardens  and  others  of  Blackfriars 

getitioned  against  the  performances  given 
y  the  players  in  tliat  place,  and  were  told 
in  reply  that  the  queen  (Henrietta  Maria) 
was  *  ^  well  affected  towards  plays.  It  was, 
however,  enacted  that  there  should  be  only 
two  houses  in  the  city,  and  that  each  com> 
pany  should  play  not  more  than  twice  a  week, 
*'  forbearing  to  play  on  the  Sabbath  Day, 
in  Lent,  ajid  in  times  of  infection."  This 
measure  was  followed,  in  1638,  by  the  second 
great  published  attack  on  the  profession — 
namely,  Prynne's 'Uistrio-Mastiz'(g.v.).  in 
which  it  was  indignantly  recorded  that 
there  were  no  fewer  than  five  "  devil's 
chapels  "  in  London.  The  players,  however, 
had  the  Court  on  their  side,  and  so  all  went 
tolerably  well  with  them  till  1647-8,  when, 
the  Puiitans  beinz  uppermost,  the  English 
stage  was  for  tne  time  suppressed,  its 
Totaries  being  described  as  no  oetter  than 
heathens,  and  intolerable  to  Christians. 
Many  of  the  actors,  we  read,  took  service 
with  the  king ;  others  dung  to  their  calling, 
and  gave  surreptitious  performances,  in  face 
of  the  new  law  to  the  contrary,  some  of 
these  representations  taking  puice  in  the 
houses  of  wealthy  lovers  of  the  drama. 
Many  efforts  were  made  to  obtain  the  revo- 
cation of  the  hostile  decree,  but  without 
effect.  At  length  there  was  an  end  to  the 
Commonwealth ;  Monk  made  his  entry  into 
London  on  behalf  of  the  second  Cmirles, 
ajid  he  was  at  once  besought  to  give  his 
countenance  to  the  actors.  He  did  so 
readily ;  and  not  many  hours  passed  before 
the  drama  was  again  to  be  witnessed  in  one 
or  more  of  its  old  strongholds.  From  this 
point  onward  the  path  of  "  the  prof ession  " 
was  fairly  smooth.  In  1663  diaries  granted 
patents  to  Killigrew  and  Davenant,  and 
Kngtfs^  actors  boeamo  once  more  recog- 
nized and  protected  members  of  society. 
True,  they  still  had  their  enemies.  The 
authorities  of  London  remained  as  bitter  as 
ever  against  them,  and  we  read  that  in  1700 
the  lord  mayor  and  aldermen  issued  an 
order,  forbidding  any  playhouse  bill  to  be 
set  up  within  the  precincts  of  the  city,  and 
declaring  the  theatres  a  public  nuisance. 
Twenty  years  after,  Dennis  was  found  taunt- 
ing the  players  of  the  day  with  being 
*'  rogues  and  vagabonds ; "  and  certainly  the 
rule  of  the  lord  chamberlain  was  some- 
what arbitrary.  The  number  of  patent 
theatres  in  Limdon  continued  to  be  strictly 
limited  up  to  1S43,  wlion  free  trade  in 
the  drama  was  proclaimed,  and  when 
naturally  the  penonnel  of  the  profession 
largely  increased.  In  Scotland,  the  history 
of  the  player  was  marked  by  very  similar 
vicissitudes.  Thus,  in  1574,  the  General 
Assembly  prohibited  all  plays  founded  on 
Scripture,  and  in  1597  the  Kirk  Session  of 
Edinburgh  fulminated  against  both  players 
and  their  patrons.  Much  later—in  1715 — 
the  Presbyterian  ministers  preached  against 


the  theatre  at  Holyrood,  threatening  to 
withhold  from  its  frequenters  the  means  of 
obtaining  the  sacrament ;  in  1726,  Antony 
Aston's  theatrical  company,  arriving  in 
Edinburgh,  met  with  a  like  reception  from 
the  local  clergy ;  whilst  in  1756,  when  the 
Rev.  John  Home  {q.v.)  produced  his  tragedy 
of  'Douglas'  (7-v.),  the  Presbyteries  of 
Edinburgh  and  Glasgow  "  excommunicated," 
not  only  nim,  but  everybody  connected  with 
the  performance!  Nevertheless,  with  all 
this,  actors  in  ScotUmd  could,  it  seems, 
always  depend  upon  an  audience,  and  they 
were  never  at  any  time  so  fiercely  persecuted 
as  players  in  England  were  by  the  Puritans. 
The  annals  of  acting  in  Ireland  do  not  begin 
till  the  reign  of  Elizabeth,  during  which,  it 
is  recorded,  plays  were  performed  at  Hoggin 
Green,  DubOn,  before  the  Lord  Lieutenant. 
The  first  Dublin  theatre,  due  to  the  enter- 
prise of  John  Ogilby,  dates  from  1635.  During 
the  civil  war,  the  stoge  languished  in  IreUmd 
as  in  England,  being  resuscitated  in  both 
countries  about  the  same  time.  The  Smock 
Alley  Theatre  was  opened  in  1662,  also  under 
the  auspices  of  Ogilby.  The  beginnings  of 
the  profession  in  America  would  seem  to  date 
from  1733,  when,  apparently,  theatrical  per- 
formances of  some  sort  were  given  in  New 
York.  In  1740  there  was  a  company  of 
players  at  Philadelphia,  and  in  1750  it  made 
Its  appearance  in  New  York,  afterwards 
going  to  Williamsburg,  Virginia.    There  had 

Sreviously  been  several  dramatic  seasons  in 
amaica,  where  Moody,  the  Irish  comedian, 
Slayed  about  1745,  returning  by-and-by  to 
Ingland,  and  sending  thence  a  regular 
troupe,  which  performed  in  the  island  in 
1751.  In  1752  an  English  company,  exploited 
by  William,  and  headed  by  Lewis,  Iiallam, 
appeared  at  Williamshnrg,  and  this  is  the 
first  combination  of  which  wo  possess  many 
particulars.  The  troupe  numbered  twelve, 
each  of  whom.had  one  share  (out  of  eighteen 
shares)  in  the  profits,  save  Lewis,  who  had 
two  shares,  one  as  actor  and  one  as  mana- 
ger. The  advent  of  the  company  had  been 
preceded  in  1750  by  a  declaration  of  the  au- 
thorities of  Massachusetts  against  the  acting 
of  stage  plays,  and  it  was  followed  in  1774  by 
the  closing  of  the  theatres  in  Philadelphia, 
in  accordance  with  a  decree  of  Congress.  In 
1793  the  Massachu.Hetts  onler  was  repealed. 
In  America,  as  in  the  United  Kingdom,  the 
early  years  of  the  drama  were  charac- 
terizedf  by  much  struggling  between  actors 
and  the  law,  the  latter,  when  inimical  to 
the  plavers,  being  as  far  as  possible  defied 
or  evaded.  At  the  present  moment  the 
British  player  has  no  impediment  placed  in 
his  way,  the  closing  of  London  theatres  on 
Ash  Wednesday,  which  used  to  obtain, 
having  been  abolished  in  1»85.  For  some 
farther  details  l>earing  generally  on  the 
subject,  see  Actors  ;  Actrkssgs  ;  Salaries  ;

Adelaide.  (1)  A  tragoilv  by  Mrs.  Opie, 
privately  played  at  Norwich  on  January  4 
and  0,  1791,  with  the  author  in  the  title 
part.  (2)  A  historical  tragedy  in  three  acts, 
by  UE.NRY  James  Pye  iq.v.\  first  per- 
formed at  Drury  Jjano  on  January  25, 18()0, 
with  Kemble  as  Prince  Richard,  Mrs.  Sid- 
dons  as  Adelaide,  Ilarrymore  as  Prince 
John,  J.  Aikin  as  King  llenry,  and  C. 
Kemble  as  Clifford.  The  prologue  was  by 
Southey ;  the  epilogue  was  delivered  by 
Harriett  Mellon  (fi.r.).  The  play  is  founded 
on  Lyttleton's  '^liintory  of  Henrv  II.' 
Addaide,  sister  of  King  Philip  of  France, 
is  in  love  with  antl  beloved  by  Richard,  but 
John  tells  his  brother  tliat  Adelaide  is  also

Lunenbura,  and  Young,  Abbott,  Murrav, 
Egerton,  Mrs.  Egerton,  and  Miss  Foote  in 
oUier  parts.  "  If,"  says  Ilazlitt,  "  there 
had  been  one  good  passage  in  this  play,  it 
would  infallibly  have  been  danmea.  But 
It  was  all  of  a  piece  ;  one  absurdity  justified 
another. . . .  Count  Lunenburf/ cannot  marry 
Adelaide,  because  '  his  emperor's  frown '  has 
forbidden  his  marriage  with  the  daughter 
of  an  emigrant  nobleman ;  and  so,  to  avoid 
this  imperial  frown,  he  betrays  her  into  a 
pretended  marriage,  and  thus  intendst  to 
divide  his  time  between  war  and  a  mistress. 
Hence  all  the  distresses  and  mischiefs  which 
ensue."  'Adelaide '  was  printed  in  1»I«,  but 
without  the  opilogue  (spoken  by  Mathews 
as  .S'*>  Fretful  PUttjiary).  It  was  produced

AGRIPPINA 


Thomas  Gray,  the  poet,  described  the  play 
as  "  all  modem  Greek  ...  an  antique  statue, 
painted  white  and  red,  friezed,  and  dressed 
in  a  nealigit  made  by  a  Yorkshire  mantna* 
maker.'*  (2)  A  tragedy  by  Alfieri  (1783) ; 
translated  into  En^h  by  Lloyd  (1815)  and 
Bowring  (1876). 

Afirlaia.  One  of  the  'Three  Graces'  in 
G.  A.  1  Beckett's  burlesque  of  that 
name  {q.v."). 

Afflaura.  A  "tragic-comedy"  by  Sir 
John  Suckling  {q.v.\  acted  at  "  the  prirate 
house  InBlackfriars,"  probably,  Fleay  thinks, 
in  1637;  first  printed  in  1638,  and  after- 
wards with  Suckling's  other  works  (in  1696). 
Aglaura  is  beloved  both  by  the  King  and 
by  his  son,  the  Prince ,  whom  she  secretly 
marries,  but  whom  she  afterwards  kills, 
thinking  him  to  be  the  King.  She  there* 
upon  dies.  In  the  original  text,  most  of  the 
characters  had  riolent  deaths — a  fact  which 
no  doubt  led  Suckling  to  write  a  new  fifth 
act,  in  which  Aglaura  only  wounds  the 
Prince^  whilst  the  King  repents  and  dis* 
penses  justice  all  round.  The  play  api>ears 
to  have  been  performed  in  both  vetHions. 
Pepys.  writing  in  1666.  called  it  'moan- 
nothing  of  design  in  it.'  Brome,  on  the 
other  hand,  wrote  verses  in  its  praise.

Brand's  'Huniades'  {q.v.), 

Agnes.  (I)  A  play  by  Victorien  Sar-

{q.v. ),  and  first  performed  at  Covent  Garden

bum,  9. v.),  founded  on  a  French  novel  of  the 
same  name,  translated  by  Mrs.  Behn ;  and 
periormed  at  Drury  Lane,  in  1696,  with 
Mrs.  Rogers  as  the  heroine,  Powell  as  the 
Prince  of  Portugal^  Mrs.  Knight  as  Elvira, 
and  Verbruggen  as  Alvaro.  Agnes  is  be- 
loved by  the  Prince,  and  he  in  his  turn  is 
beloved  by  Elvira,  whom,  on  his  marriage, 
he  has  cast  off.  Elvira,  desiring  to  kill 
Agnes,  kills  the  Princess  by  mistake,  and 
accuses  Agnes  of  the  murder.  Agnes*  in- 
nocence is  established,  but  in  the  end  she 
is  accidentally  stabbed  by  her  lover,  Alvaro. 


Agnes  de  Vere ;  or,  The  Broken 
Heart.  A  drama  in  three  acts,  by  J.  B. 
BucKSTONE  {q.v.),  adapted  from  the  French, 
and  first  performed  at  the  Adelphi  Theatre,

and  Mrs.  Keeley  in  the  cast. 

Agnes  SoreL.  An  opera,  of  which 
Gilbert  AAbott  A  Beckett  {q.v.)  wrote 
the  libretto,  the  music  being  by  Mrs.  A. 
Beckett.  It  was  produced  in  December, 
1835,  at  the  St.  James's  Theatre,  London, 
with  a  cast  including  Braham  and  Miss  P. 
Horton. 

Agnes  St.  Anbin,  the  Wife  of 
Two  Husbands.  A  drama  by  Miss

London,  in  January,  1841,  with  Mrs.  Yates 
as  Agnes,  Yates  as  Dareourt,  Mrs.  Keeley 
as  Mdme.  Dareourt,  and  O.  Smith  and  E. 
Wright  in  other  parts.  St.  A  ubin  and  Mdme. 
Detrcourt  are  jealous  of  a  mysterious  under- 
standing between  Dareourt  and  Agnes. 
The  truth  is,  Dareourt  is  the  repository  of  a 
secret  confided  to  him  by  A gneit— the  exist- 
ence of  a  former  rascally  husband  of  hers, 
thought  dead,  but  not  so,  and  now  threat- 
ening the  heroine's  peace.  In  the  end  the 
▼illain  is  shot,  and  the  St.  Aubiiu  are  made 
happy  again. 

A-Gra-Ma-Chree ;  or,  Pulse  of  my 
Heart.  A  drama  in  five  acts,  by  Edmund

Theatre,  on  September  3, 1781,  with  Edwin 
as  Lingo,  Bannister  as  Compton,  Mrs.  Webb 
as  Mrs.  Cheshire,  and  Mrs.  Wells  as  Cowslip. 
It  was  produced  in  New  York  in  1787,  and 
again  in  1706,  with  an  actor  named  Lee  in 
the  part  of  the  widow  Cheshire, 

Agrippa,  King-  of  Alba ;  or,  The 
False  Tiberinus.  A  tragedy,  translated 
from  the  French  of  Quinault  by  John  Dan- 
cer {q.v.) ;  first  periormed  at  Dublin,  and 
prmted  in  1675.  "It  is,"  says  Genest,  "a 
dull  play  in  rhyme.  The  plot  is  intricate 
and  very  improbable,"  being  based  on  the 
resemblance  of  one  Agripj^  to  Tiberinus 
King  of  Alba,  whom  he  is  persuaded  to 
personate.

Dublin ;  died  1805 ;  brother  of  James  Aickin 
(q.v.)\  gained  his  early  experience  in  Ire- 
land :  appeared  at  Drury  I^ne  in  1785,  and 
remained  there  till  1774,  when  he  went  to 
Covent  Garden,  from  which  he  retired  in 
1792.  He  was  at  one  time  manager  of  the 
Liverpool  Theatre  (1703),  and  at  another 
time  part-manager  of  the  theatre  at  Edin- 
burgh. Wo  read  that  "he  had  a  good 
person,  no  inconsiderable  share  of  Judgment, 
a  sonorous,  distinct  voice.  He  succeeded  in 
the  impassioned  and  declamatory  parts  of 
tragedy,  insomuch  that  from  his  being  so 
often  cast  in  that  line,  his  intimates  in  the 
green-room  nicknamea  him  'Tyrant  Aickin.' 
Nor  did  all  his  merit  lie  in  tragedy.  In 
serious  parts  of  comedv,  such  as  Sir  John 
Flowerdale^  Stoekwell,  etc.,  he  had  a  pleasing 
harmony  in  his  tones,  and  a  precision  of 
expression  which  jp^ave  force  to  those  cha- 
racters."  Genest,  in  his  History,  gives  a  list 
of  over  eighty  characters  assumed  oy  Aickin, 
including  the  Ohost  in  '  Hamlet,'  Jacques  in 
'  As  You  Like  It,'  Stukely  in  *  The  Game-

Aiokin,  James.  Actor,  bom  in  Ireland ; 
died  1803  ;  brother  of  Francis  Aickin  (q.v.) ; 
first  played  in  the  Irish  provinces,  and  after- 
wards accepted  an  engagement  at  the 
Edinburgh  Theatre,  where  he  remained  till 
1767,  latterly  performing  most  of  the  leading 
I^rts  in  tragedy  and  comedy.  In  the  year 
named  he  l^came  a  member  of  the  Drury 
Lane  company,  to  which  he  continued  to  be 
attached  (with  occasional  appearances  at 
the  Hajmarket)  till  1800.  He  was  for  some 
years  one  of  the  deputv  managers  of  Drury 
Lane.  He  was  "considered,"  says  Ger est, 
"a  respectable  and  useful  actor,"  having 
"an   ease   and   manner  which  wore  very 

Eaffreeable  and  natural."  "He  generally 
leased,  and  never  disgusted.  His  forte  lay 
1  the  representation  of  an  honest  steward 
or  an  affectionate  parent."  For  an  account

ALEXINA 


"Which  he  carried  on  for  seren  years,  along 
irith  the  Adelphi,  Edinbureh,  and  the  the- 
atres at  Dumfries  and  Carlisle.  In  1829  he 
obtained  the  patent  for  Gla8«>w,  built  a 
theatre  for  himself,  and,  says  Peter  Pater- 
son,  **  continued  from  that  period  until 
vittdn  a  few  months  of  his  death  a  course 
of  profitable  management,  which  enabled 
him  to  leave  his  familyin  a  position  of  com- 
parative  aflSuence."  The  same  writer  says 
of  Alexander's  performances  in  Edinbursh 
that  "his  powerful  mind,  free  from  tne 
cares  of  management,  enabled  him  to  per- 
form an  extensive  range  of  characters  with 
great  ability ;  but  what  contributed  as  much 
as  any  other  element  to  his  success,  was  an 
excellent  taste  in  dress  and  invariable  cor- 
rectness in  reading."  See  Jefferson's  *  Auto- 
biogmphy '  (188&-00). 

Alexander,  Sir  William  (Earl  of 
Stirling).  Poet  and  statesman,  bom  1567  or 
1568,  died  in  London,  1640 ;  was  the  author 
of  the  following  tragedies :— '  Darius '  (1603), 
'Croesus'  (1604),  'Julius  Geesar ' (1604),  and 
'The  Alexandriean '  (1605);  all  of  which  see. 
They  were  publish^  together,  under  the 
title  of  'Monarchicke  Tragedies,'  in  1607. 
Alexander's  collected  *  Worxs '  appeared  in 
1637.  **  His  tragedies,"  says  Orosart,  "  have 
'brave  sublunary  things,'  if  laboured  and 
dull  as  a  whole.  See  Rogers'  *  Memorials 
of  the  Eari  of  StirUng '  (1877).

Alexander  the  Qreat.  The  famous 
conqueror  of  antiquity  is  the  chief  person- 
age In  many  dramatic  pieces;  notably  (1) 
^exander,  Campaspe,  and  Diogenes:'  a 
comedy  by  John  Lyly  (q.vX  ••  played  before 
Queen  Elizabeth,  on  Twelfth-night  (1581), 
by  the  children  of  Paul's ''  and  printed  in 
1584.  The  plot  is  from  Pliny's  'Natural 
History,'  bk.  xxxv.  chap.  10.  Lyly  was 
perhaps  Indebted  to  "a  ballet,  entituled 
An  Ilistory  of  Alexander,  Campaspe.  and 
Apelles,  and  of  the  faythful  fryndshippe 
betweene  theym,"  printed  for  Colwell  in 
1666.  ••  This  play,"  says  Hazlitt,  "  is  a  very 
pleasing  transcript  of  old  manners  and  senti- 
ment. It  is  full  of  sweetness  and  point,  of 
Attic  salt  and  the  honey  of  Hymettus." 
Collier  describes  the  play  as  "  certainly  one 
of  the  best  of  Lyly's  productions,"  prais- 
ing "  the  force  and  distinction  with  which 
JHoffenea  is  drawn."  "  Some  interest  is  also 
felt  for  Apelles.  who  had  fallen  in  love  with 
Camwupt  while  employed  by  Alexander  to 
paint  her  portndt.  .  .  .  Campaspe  also  be- 
comes enamoured  of  ilpei^«.  .  .  .  The  main 
plot  is  varied  by  the  introduction  of  some 
of  the  Grecian  sages  and  philosophers." 
'^  Apelles  and  Gampaspet"  lays  Fleay, "  seem 


to  shadow  forth  Leicester  and  the  Countess 
of  Elssex.  .  .  .  Alexander,  of  course,  means 
the  queen,  and  Hephsration,  1  think,  Bur- 
leigh. .  .  .  Diogenes,  I  think,  means  Lyly 
himself."  See  Warton's  *  English  Poetry' 
(1871X  Collier's  *  Dramatic  Poetry '  (1879),  and

Alexandrsean  Tragedy  (The).  A 
play  by  William  Alexander  {q.v.).  Earl  of 
Stirling,  printed  in  1605.  "  The  groundwork 
of  thLs  play  is  laid  on  the  differences  which 
arose  among  Alexander's  captains,  after  his 
decease,  about  the  succession. . . .  The  scene 
lies  in  Babylon,  and  the  plot  is  to  be  found 
in  Quintus  Curtius,  Dioaorus  Siculus,  Oro* 
sius,  etc."  (« Biographia  Dramatica').  This

In  no  way  indebted  to  the  narrative  of 
Herodotus. 

Amateur  Acting.  It  would  be  diffi- 
cult, if  not  imi>ossible,  to  indicate  the  origin 
of  amateur  acting.  In  England,  certainly, 
the  first  actonh-i.tf.  the  monks  who  per- 
formed in  the '  mysteries'  (q.v.)  and '  miracle- 
plays  '  (q.v.)— were,  in  every  sense,  amateurs. 
And  Uie  example  thus  set  in  the  church 
was  by-and-bT  followed  in  the  schools,  at 
the  universiUiBS.  and  at  Court.  It  is  well 
known  that  Uie  first  English  comedy, '  Ralph 
Roister  Doister'  (q.v!),  was  written  by 
Nicholas  Udall,  a  master  at  Eton,  for 
representation,  in  private,  by  his  scholars. 
An  early  amateur  performance  at  Cam- 
bridge—about iei6— has  quite  an  historical 
interest,  owing  to  the  presence  among  the 
actors  of  no  less  a  personage  than  voung 
Oliver  CromwelL     (See  Tactus.)     Under 


Elizabeth  and  the  two  first  Stuarts,  the 
masque  (q.v.)  came  into  vogue  among 
royalty  and  the  aristocracy,  and  to  the 
fondness  for  this  sort  of  work  we  owe 
Milton's  'Comus'  (q.v),  written  for  pro- 
duction at  Ludlow  Castle  in  1634.  the 
"  cast "  including  the  sons  and  daughter  of 
the  Earl  of  Bridgewater.  Queen  Henrietta 
Maria  promotea  manv  entertainments  of 
the  kind,  and  we  read  later  of  the  Princesa 
(afterwards  Queen)  Anne  being  "  coached  " 
for  a  performance  of  Lee's  ^itiiridate«' 
(q.v.)  bv  Joseph  Ashbury  (a.v.),  the  manager 
and  actor.  It  is  also  recorded  of  the  princess 
that  she  took  part,  in  1675,  in  a  representa- 
tion  of  Crowne's  'CaUsto'  (q.v.).  In  174& 
'  Cato '  (q.v.)  was  played  at  Leicester  House 
by  the  children  of  the  Prince  of  Wales, 
araisted  by  young  members  of  the  nobility. 
Prince  George,  afterwards  George  m.,  was 
PortiuM  ;  Pruice  Edward,  Jviia  ;  the  Prin- 
cess Augusta,  Marcia;  and  the  Princess 
Elizabeth,  Lucia.  Two  years  later '  Othello ' 
was  given  at  Dniry  Lane  Theatre  by  a 
company  of  amateurs,  including  Sir  Francis 
Delaval  (q.v.)  and  certain  of  his  relatives. 
This  was  a  highly  "  fashionable  "  a£Fair,  the 
patronage  being  very  distinguished,  and 
the  expenses  running  to  about  £1000.  In 
1773  '  Venice  Preserved '  was  performed  at 
Kelmarsh,  the  seat  of  Mr.  Hanbury,  and 
among  those  who  appeared  was  Mr.  David 
Garrick,  the  nephew  of  the  fapaous  actor,  as 
well  as  Mr.  Cradock  (q.v.),  a  noted  amateur 
of  the  time.  But  surely  the  most  magnificent 
amateur  of  those  days  was  the  Earl  of  Barry- 
more  (q.v.),  who,  besides  being  an  actor  of 
apparently  varied  ability,  built  himself  a 
theatre  at  his  seat  in  Berkshire,  and  there 
superintended  a  succession  ox  dramatic 
representations.  In  these  cases  the  profes- 
sional was  mingled  with  the  amateur  ele- 
ment, some  of  the  leading  actors  of  the  day 
being  enga^^ed  by  his  lordship.  There  was 
another  private  theatre  at  Brandenburgh 
House,  Hammersmith,  and  here  the  Mar- 
gravine of  Anspach  (q.v.)  made  numerous 
appearances  botn  as  author  and  as  actress. 
Worthy  to  rank  with  the  doings  at  Lord 
Barrymore's  were  those  which  took  place 
between  1770  and  1808,  at  Wynnstay,  the 
seat  of  Sir  W.  W.  Wynn.  These,  we  are 
told,  "  wore  on  a  scale  of  great  complete- 
ness," and  included  such  senous  adventures 
as  certain  Elizabethan  tragedies.  Among 
notable  amateurs  at  the  beginning  of  the 
century  were  Sir  Thomas  Lawrence,  Captain 
Caulfleld  (who  appeared  at  Covent  Gsj^en 
in  1802),  and  the  remarkable  '  Romeo ' 
Coatos  (q.v.).  The  last-named  made  his 
d^ut  in  London  in  1811,  and  had  the  dis- 
tinction of  being  burlesqued  by  the  elder 
Mathews  (q.v.).  Captain  Hicks,  Captain 
Tuckett,  and  a  disreputable  joumaUst 
named  Gregory,  all  had,  as  amateurs,  a 
certain  amount  of  notoriety  in  their  day, 
and  the  first-named  was  even  once  seen  at 
Covent  Garden  (about  1837).  Probably  the 
most  distinguished  company  of  amateurs 
ever  seen  in  England  was  that  organized  by 
Charles  Dickens  (a.v.)  for  performances  in 
aid  of  the  proposed  Guild  ox  Literature  and

(the  old  Theatre  Boyal,  Aberdeen)  (1878), 
*(niildTen'8  Theatricals'  0878),  *  Theatrical 
Scenes  for  Children'  (1879),  *The  Com^die 
Fran^Lse'  (1879),  and  'Amateur  Acting' 
(1880). 

Anibal.  A  character  in  *La  Maijo- 
laine '  (^.r.). 

Anixnal  Masmetisxn.  A  farce  in  three 
acts,  adapted  from  the  French  by  Mrs.  Inch- 
bald  (a.v.),  first  performed  at  Ck>Tent  (Htrden 
on  Apnl  20,  1788,  with  Quick  as  the  Doctor^ 
Mrs.  Wells  as  Comtaneet  Pope  as  the  Mar- 
md$  de  Lancy,  Edwin  as  Lajleur.  and  Mrs. 
Mattocks  as  LUette.  A  Doctor  keeps  Con- 
itanee^  his  ward,  under  lock  and  key.  desiring 
to  marry  her  himself.  But  she  is  in  Ioto  with 
a  Marouiiy  and  he  and  his  senrant  Lajleur 
gain  aamission  to  the  house  in  the  characters 
of  a  sick  man  and  a  magnetic  doctor.  Much 
fun  is  got  out  of  the  magnetizing  scenes. 
The  part  of  LaJUur  was  in  the  repertory  of 
both  Jefferson  the  second  and  fourth.  The 
farce  was  first  played  in  America  in  1703. 

Animals  on  the  Stagre.  Ilorses, 
dogs,  etc,  have  figured  on  the  boards  from 
"tune  immemorial"— not  only  as  "proper- 
ties," but  in  reality.  Plays  have  been  writ- 
ten for  them,  and  some  of  these  still  hold 
the  stage.  At  one  time  the  "equestrian 
drama,'^  as  it  was  called,  "  flourished " 
indeed,  and  it  has  not  yot  wholly  dis- 
I4>peared.  To  trace  the  origin  of  the  appear- 
ance of  animals  even  on  the  English  stage 
would  be  impossible.  Pepys  speus  of  wit- 
nessing in  1668  a  performance  of  Shirley's 
*  Uide  Park,'  in  which  homes  were  brought 
before  the  audience.  In  1727,  when  Shake- 
speare's 'Henry  VIII.'  was  rerive*!,  a 
mounted  champion  figured  in  the  corona- 
tion spectacle.  In  1803  Astley  rebuilt  his 
amphitheatre,  and  it  was  then,  says  Dutton 
Cook,  that  the  "equestrian  drama"  became 
an  institution.  In  the  same  year  a  dog  had 
figured  at  Drurv  Lane  in  Reynolds's  *  Cara- 
Tan '  (q.vX  and  had  been  so  successful  as  to 
receive  the  tribute  of  the  managerial  rap- 
tures. In  1811  Colman's  '  Blue  Beard '  was 
brought  out  at  Covent  (larden  with  a  troop 
of  horses— a  spectacle  satirized  at  the  Hay- 
market  in  "The  Quadrupeds  of  9*i®<Uin- 
burgh '  (9.  v.),  and  at  Drury  Lane  m  *The 
Quadrupeds ;  or.  The  Manager's  Last  Kick ' 
iq.v.).  In  the  prologue  to  the  former,  it 
was  said— 

**  Daw  Johnnr  Ball,  .  .  . 
Your  tMte.  rccoverad  half  from  farelni  qaaekt, 
twkm  alrincB  now  on  Eoslish  horaei  backs. 
WhUa  avarr  modem  bara  majr  rmiaa  hU  nama, 
If  not  on  lafting  praUa,  on  stabla  tuna." 

In  the  brothers  Smith's  *  Reelected  Ad- 
dresses,' published  in  1812,  we  read  in  the 
parody  on  Coleridge— 

"  AmU  tha  firaaki  that  modarn  fiariifcm  incttoii^ 
It  griavM  ma  modi  to  ma  Uva  animals 
Broiuglit  oa  tha  itaae.    Orimakll  has  hli  labMt,

more  than  one  of  Boucicault's  dramas,  and, 
as  Percy  Fitzgerald  reminds  us,  ChUperie,  in 
the  opera,  sings  a  song  on  horseback.  In 
'Claude  Duval'  (Stephens  and  Solomon)  the 
hiffh  wayman  makes  bis  first  appearance  thus. 
'  Mazeppa,'  to  the  representation  of  which  a 
horse  is  essential,  is  still  seen  at  intervals ; 
an  elephant  has  played  its  part  in  'Bound 
the  world'  (^.r.);  a  donkey  figured  in  *La 
Cigale'  iq.v.);  sheep  have  b^n  emploved 
in  comic  opera;  and  the  presence  of  live 
animals  is,  of  course,  frequent  in  pantomime. 
Birds  have  often  appeared  in  plays,  as  in 
Tennyson's  'Fl&lcon,'  for  example.  See 
Dutton  Cook's '  Book  of  the  Play '  (1876)  and 
Percy  Fitzgerald's  'The  World  Behind  the 
Scenes '(1881). 

Anjou,  Margaret  of.  figures  in 
F&Ai«KLi.N's  '  Earl  of  Warwick '  (q.v.). 

Ankaretrom.  A  character  in  H.  M. 
Milker's  libretto,  'Gustavus  III.'  iq.v.). 

Anna.  A  comedy  ascribed  to  Miss 
CUTHBERTSON.  and  performe<l  at  the  Hay- 
market,  for  the  first  and  only  time,  on 
February  25,  1703,  by  Palmer^  Bannister, 
jun.,  Wroughton,  Suett,  Mrs.  Jordan,  Miss 
Pope,  Mrs.  PoweU,  Mrs.  Kemble,  etc.

*The  Dog  of  Montargis ;  or.  The  Forest  of 
Bondy.'  has,  as  its  title  indicates,  a  dog  for 
Its  hero;  whilst  in  'The  Hindoo  Bobber' 
there  are  two  dogs.  Horses  are  introduced  in 


Anna  Maria.  The  "  maid  of  all  work  " 
in  T.  J.  Williams's  *  Id  on  Parle  Fran^ais' 
(q.v.). 

Annabel.  (1)  The  wife  of  the  hero,  in 
Miss  MiTPORD's  'Julian'  io^v.).  (2)  A  cha- 
racter  in  '  The  Man  of  Ten  Thousand '  (q.v.).

Annapolis,  U.S.A.  The  theatre  here 
was  erected  in  1831,  and  opened  by  J.  B. 
Booth,  under  the  management  of  Thomas 
Flynn. 

Anne  Blake.  A  play  in  five  acts,  by 
Wes TLAND  Marston  (q.v.),  first  performed  at 
the  Princess's  Theatre,  I/>ndon,  on  October 
28, 1852,  with  Mrs.  C.  Kean  in  the  title  jpart, 
C.  Kean  as  Tkoroldt  W.  Lacy  as  Llantstont 
Addison  as  Sir  Jotteph  Toppington^  and  Mrs. 
Winstanley  as  Lady  Toppington.  Ani\e 
lives  with  the  Toppingtont^  who  are  induced, 
by  pressure  in  reference  to  a  mortgage,  to 

EromLse  her  to  JAani*ton.  By  a  device  she 
I  brought  to  think  that  Thoroldi  whom  she 
loves,  and  who  loves  her,  does  not  care  for 
her,  and  she  accepts  Llaniston ;  but  in  the 
end  the  lovers  are  made  happy.  The  play 
was  first  performed  at  New  York  in  Novem- 
ber, 1852,  with  F.  Conway  as  Thorold  and 
Mrs.  Mowatt  as  the  heroine.  It  was  revived 
at  the  Standard  Theatre,  London,  in  1861, 
with  Miss  Marriott  in  the  title  part.

'  Tempest '  (q.v.).  He  first  appears  in  act  L

sands "  and  "Tull  fathom  five  my  father 
lies."  in  act  i.  sc.  2.  and  "Where  the  bee 
sucks,  there  suck  I,*'  in  act  v.  sc  1.  "  It  is 
evident,"  says  Qervinus,  "that  Shakespeare 
intended  to  give  to  jProtpero't  fovourite 
messenger  the  united  power  of  all  elemental 
spirits.  At  one  time  he  api)ear8  as  a  sear 
nymph,  swimming  and  careering  on  the  sea ; 
then  as  a  fire-spint  who  sets  the  ship  on  fire, 
and  dimbs  like  licking  flame  up  the  mast ; 
then  as  a  spirit  of  earth,  buried  for  Protpero 
in  the  frozen  veins  of  the  earth ;  his  ruling 
nature,  however,  as  his  name  implies^  thai 
of  a  sylph,  a  spirit  of  the  air.  ...  He  in» 
formerly  in  the  service  of  the  witch  Svcorax, 
for  whose  'earthly  and  abhorrea  com- 
mands' he  vras  too  delicate:  he  slighted 
her  behests,  and  she  confined  idm, '  by  help 
of  her  more  potent  ministers,'  in  a  cloven 

{>ine :  .  .  .  but,  after  twelve  years'  painful 
mprisonment,  Prospero'e  magic  power  set 
him  free.  For  thia  oenefit,  the  restoration 
of  freedom,  the  highest  Ar(el  knew,  he  gave 
to  Prospero  a  service  more  suited  to  his 
gentle  nature  "  ('  Shakespeare's  Characters '). 
*' Shakespeare,"  says  Hazlitt,  "has,  as  it 
were  by  design,  drawn  off  from  (kUUian  the 
elements  of  whatever  is  ethereal  and  re- 
fined, to  compound  them  in  the  uneurthly 
mould  of  Ariel.  Nothing  was  ever  more 
finely  conceived  than  this  contrast  between 
the  material  and  the  spiritual,  the  gross 
and  delicate.  Ariel  is  imaginary  power,  the 
swiftness  of  thought  personifled.  When 
told  to  make  good  speed  by  Profpero,  he 
says,  '  I  drink  the  air  before  me.'  This  is 
something  like  Puel^t  boast  on  a  similar 
occasion,  *  ril  put  a  girdle  round  about  the 
earth  in  forty  minutes.'  But  JnW  differs 
from  Puck  in  having  a  fellow-feeling  in  the 
interests  of  those  he  is  employed  about." 
Longfellow  tells  us  how 

"  Ariel  In  the  cloTen  pine  tree 
For  freedom 
Groans  and  slglu." 

Ariel  is  the  "  magic  pnge  from  Shakespeare's 
magic  volume,"  in  the  Brothers  Brouoh's 
'Enchanted  Isle'  (q.v.).  See,  also,  Bur-

AnreUo  and  ICiranda.  A  play  in  five 
acts,  by  J.  Boaden  (q.v.),  founded  on  M.  G. 
Lewis's  novel  'The  Monk,'  and  first  per* 
formed  at  Drury  Lane  on  December  29, 
1798,  vtith  Kemble  as  Aurelio,  Mrs.  Siddons 
as  Miranda,  Mrs.  Powell  as  Agnes.  Barry- 
more  as  Raymond,  and  other  parts  by  Ban- 
nister,  jun.,  C.  Kemble,  Wewitzer,  Archer, 
Mrs.  Bland,  etc  Aurelio  is  a  monk,  with 
whom  Miranda  has  fallen  in  love,  and 
whom  she  attends  in  the  guise  of  a  boy. 
When  she  reveals  her  sex,  Aurelio  recipro- 
cates her  affection,  and,  being  released  from 
his  vows,  is  enabled  to  marry  her.  Agnes 
and  Raymond  are  in  love,  and  the  adventures 
of  Aanes  in  a  nunnery  form  the  underplot. 
*'A  ludicrous  circumstance,"  says  Genest, 
'*  took  place  on  the  first  night.  In  the  fifth 
act,  when  Mrs.  Siddons  took  the  child  from 
Mrs.  Powell,  there  happened  to  be  some 
hissing.  Mrs.  Siddons,  not  liking  this,  made 
her  exit  more  rapidly  than  usual.  In  her 
hurry  she  struck  the  wooden  child  so 
Tiolently  against  the  door  slio  was  going 
through,  that  the  head  came  tumbling  down 
the  stage.  Mrs.  Powell  had  to  say  imme- 
diately, 'Immortal  power,  preserve  my 
chUd.^" 

Aurenniebe ;  or,  The  Great  UTogiil. 
A  tragedy  by  John  Dryden  (^.r.),  probably 
acted  m  the  spring  of  1G75,  and  printed  in 
that  year.  The  first  cast  included  Hart  as 
Aurengzehe,  Mohun  as  the  Emperor,  Mrs. 
Marshidl  as  Nourmahal,  Kynaston  as  Moral, 
Mrs.  Cox  as  Indamcra,  and  Mrs.  Corbet  as 
Melesinda,  The  scene  is  in  Agra  in  1660. 
The  Emperor  desires  his  son  Aurengzebe  to 
resign  to  him  Indamora,  the  captive  queen 
with  whom  both  are  in  love.  Aurengzebe 
refuses,  and  the  Emperor  thereupon  con- 


nives with  his  other  son  Morat,  and  AurengT 
zebe  is  put  in  confinement.  Hourmahal,  the 
Empress,  loves  him,  but  he  rejects  her  ad 
vances,  and  she  attempts  to  poison  him. 
The  Emperor  and  Morat  quarrel ;  the  former 
makes  friends  with  Aurengzebe,  and  the 
last-named  defeats  the  forces  of  his  brother, 
who  dies  of  his  wounds.  His  wife,  Mele- 
sinda, commits  suicide  ;  Nourmahal  poisons 
herself  and  dies  mad ;  and  Aurengzebe  and 
/ndamora  are  made  hiu>py.  Da  vies  describes 
the  piece  as  the  author's  "last  and  most 
perfect  rhvming  tragedy.  The  passions  are 
strongly  depicMd,  the  characters  well  dis- 
criminated, and  the  diction  more  familiar 
and  dramatic  than  in  any  of  his  preceding 
pieces"  ('Dramatic  Miscellanies '1  "The 
verse  used,"  says  Scott,  "is  of  that  kind 
which  may  be  most  easily  applied  to  the 
purposes  of  ordinary  dialogue."  It  is  in 
this  tragedy  that  wo  find  the  weUknown 
description  of  life — 

"  When  I  oonilder  life,  'tis  an  a  dieat,"  etc — 

which  is  placed  in  the  mouth  of  the  hero. 
"  Nor,"  says  Scott,  "  is  the  answer  of  JVoiir- 
mahal  inferior  in  beauty" — 

"TU  not  for  nothing  that  we  Ufo  ponue,"  etc 

Praise  is  given  by  Scott  to  the  lines  on  virtae, 
also  spoken  by  Aurengzd>e — 

"  Bow  Tain  if  Tirtue,  which  directi  oar  wayB,"  etc. 

'  Aurengzebe '  was  revived  at  Drurv  Lane  in 
February,  1708,  with  Powell  as  the  hero, 
Betterton  as  the  Emperor,  Booth  as  Morat, 
Mrs.  Barry  as  Nourmahal,  Mrs.  Rogers  a& 
Indamora,  and  Mrs.  Porter  as  Melesinda; 
at  the  same  theatre  in  November,  1709,  with 
Mrs.  Bradshaw  as  Indamora ;  and  again  at 
Drury  Lane  in  December,  1721,  with  WUka 
as  Aurengzebe,  Mills  as  the  Emperor,  Mrs.

The  controversy  is  thns  summed  np  by 
Blebard  Grant  White:  "It  is  as  certain 
thai  William  Shakespeare  wrote  (after 
the  theatrical  fashion  and  under  the  the- 
atrical conditions  of  his  day)  the  plays 
which  bear  his  name,  as  it  is  that  Francis 
Bacon  wrote  the  '  Novum  Organum,'  the 
*Advancem«it  of  Learning,'  and  the  'Es- 
says.'    The  notion  that  Bacon  also  wrote 

*  litus  Andronicus,'  <  The  Comedy  of  Errors/ 

*  Hamlet,'  *  King  Lear,'  and  *  OtheUo,'  is  not 
worth  five  minutes'  serious  consideration  by 
any  reasonable  creature  "  {AtlatUie  Monthly^

cook  to  Lord  North  and  Foote,  the  actor 
^tf.v.),  and  afterwardli  valet  to  a  private  gen- 
UaoKO.  During  his  travels  with  the  uist- 
named  he  aoquued  a  knowledge  of  foreign 
hingnages  wmch  was  afterwards  of  much 
use  to  nim  as  a  performer,  enabling  him  to 
take  "  broken-Euglish  "jMiia  with  much  suc- 
cess. He  upeared  at  Drury  Lane  previous 
to  1761^  vnuch  year  he  played  at  the  Smock 
Alley  Theatre,  Dublin.  In  1763  he  again 
vent  to  DrniT  Lane,  with  which  theatre, 
and  with  the  Haymarket.  he  remained  con- 
nected Ull  his  death.  He  was  married  to 
Sophia  Snow  in  1764.  He  was  the  original 
representaUve  of  Canton  in  'The  Clandes- 
tine  Marriage,'  Ftdmer  in  *  The  West  Indian,' 
Dr,DrHid  in  *  The  Fashionable  Lover,'  Spmee

Author'  (1781X  Puf  in  *  The  Patron '  0781), 
and  FhbUUn  (1789-90).  Wewitser  says  that 
"  the  first  character  ne  happened  to  appear 
in,  it  was  necessary  he  should  wear  a  sword. 
Foote,  seeing  him  thus  equipped,  imme- 
diately exclaimed,  *  Ha,  Baddeley,  I  am 
heartily  glad  to  see  you  in  the  way  of  com- 
plete transmigration-^you  liave  turned  your 
«p»<intoa«iM»rda^eadv!"'  Michael  KeUy 
says:  "He  had  a  habit  of  smacking  his 
lips  always  when  spei^dng.  In  allusion  to 
this,  Charles  Bannister  said  to  him  one  day, 
*  My  dear  Baddeley,  everybody  must  know  , 
that  you  have  been  a  cook,  for  you  always 
seem  to  be  tasting  your  words.'  *^  In  *  The 
Theatre '  (1771)  we  read  that 

"  Baddeley  can  never  mlai 
A  croudilng  Frenchman  or  a  flattering  Swla ;  ** 

and  Huffh  Kelly,  in  'Thespis'  (1766),  Is 
equally  Battering  about  his  *'  foreign  foot- 
men." On  the  other  hand,  Williams,  in  his 
'  Children  of  Thespis '  (1786),  speaks  of  the 
actor  as  being  *'  slovenly "  and  *'  rushing 
through  his  parts."  By  bis  will,  dated 
1792.  he  left  a  house  at  Moulsey  *'  to  be 
used  as  an  asylum  for  decayed  actors 
and  actresses,"  with  a  provision  tliat  when 
the  property  was  worth  £360  a  year  pensions 
were  to  be  bestowed.  He  also  bequeathed 
money  to  the  fund  for  the  relief  of  indigent 
persons  connected  with  Drury  Lane  Theaiare, 
and  £8  per  annum  for  the  purchase  of  cake 
and  wine  to  be  dispensed  to  the  Drury 
Lane  company  on  Twelfth  Night— a  cere- 
mony which  is  still  performed.  See  Genest's 
'  English  Stage '  (1882),  Dutton  Cook's  *  Hours 
with  the  Players'  (1880),  the  Theatre  for 
September,  1880,  etc. 

Baddeley,  Sophia  (n^  Snow).  Actress 
and  vocalist,  wife  of  B.  Baddeley;  bom 
1746,  died  1786;  is  thought  to  have  made

appeared  at  Drury  Lane  tn  1765  as  Ophelia, 
and  in  1767  as  Desdemona  and  Dame 
Kitely;  and  amons  her  other  parts  were

BaJcM,'  Miss  Marehnumt  in  *  False  Delicacy,' 
and  Miss  WiUoughby  in  'A  Word  to  the 
Wise.'  Boaden  says  that  as  Imogen  "  her 
beautiful  countenance  used  to  excite  the 
greatest  interest,"  while  George  III.  and 
Queen  Charlotte  were  so  delighted  with 
her  Fanny  in  ' The  Clandestine  Marriage'

Barry,  Elizabeth.  Actress,  bom  165S» 
died  1713  ;  is  said  to  have  been  the  daughter 
of  a  barrister  (afterwards  known  as  Colonel 
BarryX  and  to  have  been  at  one  tim» 
under  the  care  of  Lady  Davenant.  Antony 
Aston  says  that,  when  the  Earl  of  Rochester 
secureil  her  appearance  on  the  stage^ 
she  was  "woman"  to  Lady  Shelton  of 
Norfolk.  Certain  it  is  that  her  dUntt 
was  made  at  Dorset  Garden  about  1678.  aa 
Qw^n  of  Hungary  in  '  Mustapha,'  and  that 
at  first  she  was  by  no  means  a  success.  *'  She 
was,  at  the  end  of  the  first  year,  discharg'd 
the  company,  among  others  that  were 
thought  to  oe  a  useless  expense  to  it." 
However,  she  appeared  again  in  1675,  and 
thence  continuously  till  1682,  when  she  ^ 
figured  at  the  Theatre  Royal.  With  that 
establishment  she  was  associated  till  1695, 
when  she  nuule  her  entree  at  Lincoln's  Inn 
Fields.  In  1705  she  went  to  the  Ilaymarket, 
going  to  Drury  Lane  in  1708,  and  returning 
to  the  Ilaymarket  in  1709-10.  In  the  latter 
year  she  withdrew  from  the  stiu^e.  It  would 
seem  that  she  was  the  first  (listinguished 
English  performer  for  whose  benefit  a  per- 
formance was  given.  She  was  the  mistres.«f 
not  only  of  Rochester  but  of  Sir  George 
Etherege,  and  her  moral  character  generally 
is  described  as  of  the  worst.  Among  her

Loverule  in  •  The  Devil  to  Pay '  (q.v.).  He 
was  engaged  there  till  1743,  when  he  ap- 
peared at  Covent  Garden  as  Macheath  m 
*The  Beggar's  Opera'  (q.v.\  At  the  latter 
theatre  he  remained  tUl  1748,  when  he  re- 
appeared at  Drury  Lane.  In  1759  he  married 
(en  secondes  noces)  Charlotte  Rich,  daughter 
of  the  manager  of  Covent  Garden,  of  which 
theatre,  after  Rich's  death,  he  undertook, 
in  November,  1761,  the  mans^jgement.  He 
was  the  original  representative  of  Havh 
thome  in  Bickerstafrs  Love  in  a  Village' 
q.v.\  in  which  part,  on  May  28,  17677ne 

ade  farewell  to  the  boards.  His  first  ap- 
pearances  as  a  platform  singer  had  been 
made  in  the  periormances  conducted  by 
Handel  at  C!ovent  (harden  in  1786.  "  To  form 
an  estimate  of  his  abilities  as  a  singer,  it  is 
only  necessary  to  remember  that  Handel 
composed  for  him  the  gr^t  tenor  parts  in 
'Israel  in  Egypt,'  'Messiah,'  'Samson/ 
'  Judas  Maccabaeus/  and  '  Jepthah.'  ^ 
Charles  Dibdin  says :  "  I  consider  Beard, 
taken  altogether,  as  the  best  EngUsh 
singer.  He  was  one  of  those  you  might 
fairly  try  by  Shakspearo's  speech  to  the 
actors.  He  did  not  mouth  it,  but  his 
words  came  trippingly  from  hiv  tongue; 
he  did  not  out-HerodHerod,  but  he  begot  a 
temperance  that  gave  his  exertions  smooUi- 
ness ;  he  never  outstepped  the  modesty  of 
nature,  nor  made  the  judicious  grieve.  .  .  . 
He  was  very  valuable  as  an  actor.  In  the 
'  Jovial  Crew/  '  Love  in  a  Village,* '  (Tomns,* 
and  *  Artaxerxes'  he  gave  proof  of  this  in  a 
degree  scarcely  inferior  to  anybody.**  See

BEGQAR'S  OPERA 


(by  Dr.  PepnBdi)  to  popular  aini.  Offered 
to  and  rejected  by  Gibber  ^for  Dniry  Lane), 
it  was  accepted  for  production  by  John 
Rich,  and  first  performed  at  Lincoln's  Inn 
Fields  on  January  29, 1728.  with  Chapman 
as  the  Begoar,  who  is  supposed  to  be  the 
author  of  iha  piece,  and  Milward  as  the 
Plover,  with  whom,  in  the  introduction,  he 
holds  colloquy ;  with  Hippisley  as  Peaehum 
(fk  receiver  of  stolen  soodsX  Mrs.  Martin  as 
Mrt.  Peaehum  (his  wife),  and  Miss  Lavinia 
Fenton  as  PoUy  (their  daufchter) ;  Hall  as 
LodcU  (a  JailorX  and  Mrs.  Egleton  as  Luey 
Loekit  (his  daughter) ;  and  Walker  as  Mae- 
heath  (captain  of  a  gang  of  robbers).  The 
robbera  tnemseltes  were  represented  thus— 
FOeh,  by  COark;  Jemmu  TwUeher,  by  H. 
Bullock ;  Robin  tif  Bagthot,  by  Lacy  ;  Mat 
of  the  Mint,  by  Spiller;  Ben  Budge,  by 
Morgan.  Of  the  "women  of  the  town*^ 
who  complete  the  pereona.  Mrs.  Martin  was 
Diana  Trapee  ;  Mrs.  Holiday,  Mrs.  Coaxer  ; 
Mrs.  Rice,  Jfr».  Ftoen  :  Mrs.  Clarke,  Jenny 
Diver ;  Mrs.  Morgan.  Mrt.  Slammekin.  The 
piece  was  intended  both  as  a  "skit"  upon 
the  methods  of  Italian  opera  and  as  a  social 
and  political  satire.  In  the  introduction 
the  Beggar  says :  **  I  hare  introduced  the 
flimUes  that  are  in  all  your  celebrated 
operas:  the  Swallow,  the  Moth,  the  Bee, 
the  Ship,  the  Flower,  etc.  Besides,  I  have  a 
prison  scene,  which  the  ladies  always  reckon 
charmingly  pathetic.  An  to  the  parts,  I 
hate  obserred  such  a  nice  impartiedity  to 
our  two  ladies,  that  it  is  impossible  for  either 
of  them  to  take  offence  [an  allusion  to  the 
feud  between  Cnzzoni  and  Faustina  in  1727]. 
...  I  hope  I  may  be  forgiven  that  I  hate 
not  made  my  opera  throughout  unnatural 
like  those  in  vogue ;  for  I  have  n«  recitative. 
Throughout  the  whole  piece  you  may  ob- 
serve  such  a  similitude  of  manners  in  high 
ftnd  low  life,  that  it  is  difficult  to  determine 
whether  (in  the  fashionable  vices)  the  fine 
gentlemen  imitate  the  gentlemen  of  the 
road,  or  the  gentlemen  of  the  road  the  fine 
gentlemen."  *'  No  one,"  says  Gay's  latest 
editor  (1808)>  "  could  fail  to  see  that  Bolrin 
cf  Bagehot  vras  designed  to  represent  Sir 
Robert  Walpole's  unrefined  manners,  con- 
▼iviaJ  habits,  and  alleged  robbery  of  the 
public  Maeheath  was  provided  with  both 
avrife  and  a  mistress,  to  indicate  to  the 
public  that  Lady  Walpole  had  a  rival  in 
Miss  Skerrett."  In  Spence's  *  Anecdotes ' 
Pope  is  represented  as  giving  the  following 
account  of  the  origin  of  the  piece :  *'  Dr.  Swift 
had  been  observing  once  to  Mr.  Gay  what  an 
odd  pretty  sort  of  thing  a  Newgate  Pastoral 
might  make.  Gay  vras  inclined  to  try  such 
a  tbing  for  some  time;  but  afterwards 
thought  it  would  be  better  to  write  a  comedy 
on  the  same  plan.  This  was  what  gave  rise 
to  *  The  Besgar's  Opera.'  He  began  on  it ; 
and  when  he  first  mentioned  it  to  Swift, 
the  doctor  did  not  much  like  the  project. 
As  he  carried  it  on,  he  showed  what  he 
wrote  to  boUi  of  na,  and  we  now  and  then 
gave  a  correction  or  a  word  or  two  of 
advice,  but  it  was  whollv  of  his  own  writing.** 
**  Quin,"  says  Genest,  *^had  so  happy  an  ear 
for  music,  and  was  so  famous  for  singing 


with  ease  a  common  ballad  or  catch,  that 
Gay  was  persuaded  to  offer  him  the  part  of 
MaehecUh  ;  but  after  a  short  trial  he  gave 
it  up,  from  despiUr  of  acquitting  himself 
with  the  dissolute  gaiety  and  bold  vigour  of 
deportment necessaryto the  character.  It 
vras  then  given  to  Walker ;  and  the  ease 
and  gaiety  vrith  which  he  acted  Maehealtk 
established  his  reputation."  At  the  first  re- 
presentation **  everybody  concerned  was  in 


fear  as  to  the  ultimate  fate  of  the  play.  Chiin 
afterwards  said  that  it  vras  Ions  in  a  dubious 
state ;  that  there  was  a  dispontion  to  damn 
it,  and  that  it  was  saved  by  the  song, '  Oh. 
ponder  well !  be  not  severe.*  '*  In  one  of 
the  notes  te  *The  Dunciad*  vre  read:  **It 
was  acted  in  London  sixty-three  [sixty- 
two]  days  uninterrupted  [save  for  actors' 
benefit  performances],  and  received  the  next 
season  with  equal  applause.  It  spread  into 
all  the  great  towns  of  England.  .  .  .  It  made 
ite  progress  into  Wales,  Scotland,  and  Ire- 
land. . . .  The  ladies  carried  about  with  them 
the  favourite  songs  of  it  in  fans,  and  houses 
were  furnished  with  it  in  screens.  The 
person  who  acted  PoUy,  till  then  obscure, 
became  all  at  once  the  favourite  of  the  town. 
Furthermore,  it  drove  out  of  England  (for 
that  season)  the  Italian  opera,  which  had 
carried  all  before  it  for  ten  years."  "The 
total  sum  realized  by  the  initial  set  of  per- 
formances was."  says  Gay's  latest  editor, 
**£5361 16«.  Of  this  Gay  received  for  four 
author's  nighte— the  third,  sixth,  ninth,  and 
fifteenth— £693  IZ*.  6d.  He  sold  the  copy- 
right of  the  opera  (together  vri^  that  of 
the  *  Fables*)  for  ninety  ffulneas,  and  con- 
sequently made  in  all  nearly  eight  hundred 
pounds. ''^  It  was  said  of  the  piece  that  it 
had  made  *'  Gay  rich  and  Rich  gav.*'  Rich 
might  well  be  jubilant,  for  his  proflto 
amounted  to  £4000.  The  opera  was  acted  by 
children  at  Dublin  in  1727  and  at  Lincoln^ 
Inn  Fields  in  1729.  It  was  revived  at  Drury 
Lane  in  1788,  with  Beard  as  Maeheath, 
Macklin  as  Peaehum,  Mrs.  Clive  as  PoUy. 
and  Mrs.  Pritohard  as  Luey ;  at  Covent

laro,  Federid,  F.  Marshall,  A.  Roberts,  etc. 

Bellafirontf  in  Dekkbr's  'Honest 
'Whore'  (q.v.),  is,  says  UazUtt,  *' a  most  in- 
teresting character.  It  is  an  extreme,  and 
I  am  afraid,  almost  an  ideal  case.  She  gives 
the  play  its  title,  tarns  out  a  true  penitent, 
that  is.  a  practical  one,  and  is  the  model  ox 
an  exemplary  wife." 

Bellair,  in  Ethxregb's  *Man  of  Mode' 
iq.v.)t  was  probably  intended  by  the  author 
as  a  piece  of  self-portraitnre.  Bellair  is  the 
name  also  of  characters  in  (2)  Mrs.  Cent-

from  the  *  Eunuch '  of  Terence.  *  *  The  parts 
of  Lional,  Eustaeet  PiMuU,  and  Suenee 
correspond  to  those  of  Chcerea,  Chremes,

Bellamy.  Oeor^e  Anne.  Actreai, 
bom  (according  to  her  own  statement)  on 
April  23,  1733  ^According  to  Chetwood,  in 
1727) ;  christened  "  George  Anne"  by  mistake 
for  *  *  Georgiana : "  daughter  of  Lord  Tyrawley 
and  a  quakeress  named  Seal,  who  married 
a  Captain  Bellamy  just  before  "Cieurge 
Anne  s  "  birth.  Through  her  father,  **  George 
Anne,"  in  her  vouth,  made  the  acquaintance 
of  some  notable  people,  such  as  Fox,  Chester* 
field.  Pope,  and  Garrick.  She  appears  to  have 
had  some  success  in  private  theatricals 
before,  in  1742,  she  appeared  at  Covent 
Garden  as  Prue  in  *  Love  for  Love  *  (q.v,). 
She  was  engaged  at  that  theatre  for  the 
season  of  1744-5,  during  which  she  figured 


It  was  at  this  time  that  she  undertook  her 
first  original  part— that  of  Blanch  in  *  Papal 
Tyranny '  (1745).  Between  1745  and  1748  she 
was  at  the  Aungier  Street  Theatre,  Dublin. 
In  1748-50  she  was  at  Ovent  Garden ;  in 
1750-53  at  Dmry  Lane ;  and  in  1753-59  at 
Covent  Garden  again.  She  visited  Dublin 
(Smock  Alley)  in  1760-61.  and  Edinburgh  in 
1764.  At  Covent  Garden  she  figurM  in 
1761-62,  and  between  1764  and  1770.  She 
died  in  Febmary,  1788.  Among  the  cha- 
racters she  "  created  "—and  they  were  not 
verv  numerous— were  Volumnia  in  Thom- 
son s  '  Coriolanus '  (1740),  Erixenein  Young's 
•Brothers'  (1753),  Virginia  in  Moncrieffs 
*  Appius '  (1755).  and  the  heroine  in  *  Cleone ' 
(1758).  Her  Shakespearean  parts  included 
Juliet  [which  she  played,  with  Garrick  as 
BomeOf  at  Covent  Garden  in  1750,  against 
Barry  and  Mrs.  Nosslter  at  the  rival  estab- 
lishment], Cordelia,  Deedemonaj  Lady  Mac- 
beth. Portia  in  *  Julius  Ca!8ar,'and  UabeUa 
in  '  Measure  for  Measure  ; '  among  her  other 
r6le9  mav  be  mentioned  Marcia  in  '  Cato,' 
Leonora  in  '  The  Revenge,'  Almeria  in  *  The 
Mouminff  Bride,'  Andromache^  and  Calieta, 
For  further  details,  see  Genest's  *  English 
Stage '  (1832).  ••  We  can  say  of  Mrs.  Bellamy," 
observes  C.  Dibdin,  *'  that  she  was  natunU, 
easy,  chaste,  and  impressive ;  that  as  far 
as  person,  features,  voice,  and  conception 
went,  none  of  whico  were  by  any  means  of 
an  inferior  description,  she  highly  pleased 
and  never  offended."  **  In  the  latter  part  of 
her  life  she  went  off  greatly  in  her  acting, 
and  consequently  could  not  get  an  engage- 
ment; but  her  dfstrens  arose  chiefly  from 
her  extravagance."  In  1785  appeared  *An 
Apology  for  the  Life  of  George  Anne 
Bellamy,'  compiled,  apparently,  by  Alex- 
ander Bicknell,  who  ''ingeniously  worked 
up  his  materials  into  five  small  volumes,  to

Actress,  bom  in  Anstralia,  whence  she  went 
to  California,  'appearing  iin  New  York  for 
the  first  time  in  1866.  Since  then  she  has 
played  in  New  York  leading  parts  in  such 
pieces  as  *  Pink  Dominos '  and  '  A  Celebrated 
Case '  (at  the  Union  Square^  *  Sardanapalos '

Booth,  Sarah.  Actress ;  bom  at  Bir- 
iff^g^'^'"  in  1792 ;  died  1867 ;  seems  to  have 
ma£  her  d^but  in  1804  at  Manchester  as  a 
dancer.  She  was  afterwards  entrusted  by  the 
manager,  Macready,  with  small  parts,  which 
led  to  more  important  ones.  Trom  Man- 
chester she  went  to  Doncaster,  where  her 
AUxina  in  *The  Exile'  (q.v.)  attracted 
attention,  and  led  to  her  engagement  by 
EUlston  for  the  Royal  Circus.  Here  she 
appeared  mainly  in  melodrama.  Next  came 
an  engagement  at  Covent  Garden,  where 
she  opened  on  November  23,  1810,  as 
AmanUiis  in  'A  Child  of  Nature'  (q.v,). 
She  was  at  once  successful,  and  was  speedily 
allotted  some  "  original  "parts, among  them 
EUen  in  'Education,'  Claudine  in  'The 
Miller  and  his  Men,'  and  Florio  in  '  The  Dog 
of  Montu^ds.'  She  was  also  seen  in  such 
rdlet  as  Dolly  in  '  Fontainblean,'  Annette  in 

*  The  Maid  and  the  Magpie '  and  LittU  Pickle 
in  '  The  SpoUed  ChUd?  Her  highest  flight 
was  made  as  Juliet.  During  her  next 
engagement  at  the  same  theatre  she  played 
Cordelia  to  the  Lear  of  Booth.  At  Drury 
Lane  she  figured  as  Lady  Bodolpha  to 
Edmund  Kean's  Sir  Arehy ;  thence  she  went 
to  the  Olympic  (1821),  returning  once  more 
to  Covent  Garden,  where  she  appeared  as 
Maria  Dwiington.  Engagements  at  the 
AdelphI,  Drury  Lane,  and  Haymarket  fol- 
lowed. Among  her  notable  parts  were 
Letitia  Hardy,  Lady  Teazle,  and  PrisciUa 
Tomboy  in '  The  Bomp  *  (q.v.),  "  I  am  sure," 
vrrites  William  Robson,  "I  have  seen  her 
in  Juliet,  Jiot€Uindj  Cora,  Viola,  and  above 
all  in  Puck,  in  which  she  was  as  near  the 
merry,  mischievous  elf,  as  flesh  and  blood 
can  approach.  Her  person  was  petite  and 
pretty ;  she  had  a  pleasing  voice,  and.  what 
was  luways  my  delight,  a  most  clear,  distinct 
enunciation.   .   .   .   She  was  the  original

Boston.  U.S.A.  The  regular  theatrical 
life  of  Boston  appears  to  have  begun  little 
more  than  a  century  ago.  In  1750,  or  there- 
abouts, stage  performances  were  prohibited 
by  law,  and  an  effort  made  in  1702  to  get 
this  enactment  abolished  was  unsucc^ssml. 
The  result,  we  read,  was  that  plays  were 
represented  in  the  local  '*  exhibition  room  " 
under  the  disguise  and  title  of  **  moral 
lectures."  However,  in  1704  a  theatre  was 
built  in  Federal  Street,  and  two  years  later 
another  was  erected  in  the  Haymarket. 
The  Boston  Museum  dates  from  1846,  being 
opened  in  November  of  that  year,  in  1852 
came  the  '*  inauguration  **  of  the  National 
Theatre.  To  1854  belongs  the  Boston  The- 
atre, which  was  started  in  September  by 
^omas  Barry.  In  1867  J.  H.  Selwyn  opened 
a  theatre  named  after  himself.  This  he 
managed  for  two  seasons,  at  the  end  of 
which  it  was  re-christened  the  Globe.  It 
was  thereafter  directed  successively  by  C. 
Fechter  and  W.  B.  Floyd,  being  burned 
down  in  May,  1878,  rebuilt,  and  reopened 
in  December,  1874.  For  details  of  the  the- 
atrical history  of  Boston,  see  the  'Record 
of  the  Boston  Stage.'  written  by  W.  W. 
Clapp,  Jun.,  and  published  in  1853. 

Boswell,  James,  son  of  the  biographer 
of  Dr.  Johnson,  edited  *The  Plays  and 
Poems  of  Wm.  Shakespeare,  with  the  cor- 
rections and  illustrations  of  vuious  com- 
mentators, comprehending  a  life  of  the 
poet  and  an  enlarged  history  of  the  stage, 
by  the  late  Edmund  Malone'  (1821),  con- 
tributing to  the  work  "various  readings 
and  notes  of  no  great  importance,"  additions

Octaviain  ^All  for  Lore/ ^«pa<ia  in  *The 
Maid's  Tragedy/  and  Siatiraxn  '  Alexandra 
the  Great.'  She  acted  at  the  Theatre  Royal 
from  1688  to  1094,  at  Lincoln's  Inn  Fields 
from  1695  to  1705,  and  at  the  Haymarket 
from  1705  to  1707.  In  the  last>named  rear 
(the  thirty-third  of  her  affe)  she  retired  from 
the  stage— for  what  partlcolar  reason  is  not 
certain.  It  n^ay  have  been,  as  suirgested, 
because  Mrs.  Uldfleld  **was  ezcelllng  her 
in  popular  estimation  ; "  or  because  Mrs. 
Olofield  was  "  preferr'd  to  some  parts  before 
her ;"  or  because  Mrs.  Oldfield's  "  benefit" 
was  *' allowed  to  be  in  the  season  before  ** 
hers.  Genest  thinks  that  "the  affront** 
shown  to  her  in  the  matter  of  her  '*  benefit " 
would  be  "a  sufficient  cause"  for  her  re- 
Urement.  She  returned  to  the  boards  in 
1709,  but  only  for  one  night  (April  7),  to 
appear  as  Angelica  in  '  Love  for  LoTe '  for 
the  benefit  of  "  her  good  friend  Mr.  Better- 
ton."  When  she  died,  she  was  interred  in 
the  cloisters  of  Westminster  Abbe^.  Colley 
Gibber  speaks  of  "her  reputation  as  an 
actress  gradually  rising  with  that  of  her  per- 
son ;  never  any  woman  was  in  such  general 
favour  of  her  spectators,  which,  to  the  last 
scene  of  her  diamatick  life,  she  maintain'd 
by  not  being  unguarded  in  ner  private  cha- 
racter. This  discretion  contributed  not  a 
little  to  make  her  the  card^  the  darling  of  the 
theatre ;  for  it  will  be  no  extravagant  thing 
to  sav,  scarce  an  audience  saw  that  were 
less  than  half  of  them  lovers,  Mrithont  a  sus- 
pected favourite  among  them.  .  .  .  She  had 
no  greater  claim  to  beauty  than  what  the 
most  desirable  brunette  might  pretend  to. 
Bat  her  youth  and  lively  aspect  threw  out 
such  a  glow  of  health  ana  cheerfulness,  that 
on  the  stage  few  spectators  that  were  not 
past  it  could  behold  her  without  desire.  It 
was  even  the  fashion  among  the  gay  and 
young  to  have  a  taste  or  tendre  ^r  Mrs. 
Biacegirdle.  She  inspired  the  best  authors 
to,  write  for  her,  ana  two  of  them  [Rowe 
and  Congreve],  when  they  gave  her  a  lover 
in  a  play,  seem'd  palpably  to  plead  their  own 
passions,  and  make  their  private  court  to 
ner  in  fictitious  characters.  In  all  the  chief 
parts  she  acted,  the  desire  was  so  predomi- 
nant, that  no  judge  could  be  cola  enough 
to  consider  from  what  other  particular  excel- 
lence she  became  delightful.  .  .  .  Yet  let  me 
say,  there  were  two  verv  different  characters 
in  which  she  acquitted  herself  with  uncom- 
mon applause  IStatira  and  Millamant].  In 
other  characters,  where  singing  was  a 
neceesarv  part  of  them,  her  voice  and  action 

Skve  a  pleasure  which  good  sense,  in  those 
ITS,  vras  not  asham'd  to  give  praise  to" 
('Apology,'  1740).  Anthony  Aston  (who 
calls  her  "that  Diana  of  the  stage")  says 
**she  was  of  a  lovely  height,  with  dark- 
brovm  hair  and  eyebrows, l>lack  sparkling 
eyes,  and  a  fresh  blushy  complexion ;  and. 
whenever  she  exerted  herself,  had  an  in- 
▼olantary  flushinff  in  her  breast,  neck,  and 
face,  having  con^nally  a  cheerful  aspect. 


and  a  fine  set  of  even  white  teeth ;  never 
making  an  exit,  but  that  she  left  the  audi- 
ence in  an  imitation  of  her  pleasant  counte- 
nance. Genteel  comedv  was  her  chief  essay, 
and  that  too  when  in  men's  clothes,  m 
which  she  far  surmounted  all  the  actresses 
of  that  and  this  age.  Yet  she  had  a  defect 
scarce  perceptible,  vis.  her  right  shoulder 
a  little  protended,  which,  when  in  men's 
clothes,  was  cover  d  by  a  long  or  camiMkign 
peruke.  She  was  finely  shap'd,  ana  had 
very  handsome  legs  and  feet ;  and  her  salt, 
or  walk,  was  free,  manlike,  and  modest, 
when  in  breeches.  .  .  .  She  was,  when  on 
the  stage,  diumally  charitable,  going  often 
into  Clare  Market,  and  giving  money  to  the 
poor  unemploy'd  oasket-women,  insomuch 
that  she  would  not  pass  that  neighbourhood 
without  the  thankful  acclamations  of  people 
of  all  degrees  "  ('  Supplement  to  C.  C/iober's 
lives/  1747-8).  Gilaon,  in  his  '  Comparison 
between  the  Two  Stages'  (1702),  and  Tom 
Brown,  in  his  'Letters  from  toe  Dead  to 
the  Livine,'  express  more  than  scepticism 
as  to  the  chastity  for  which  the  actress  was 
famous.  For  details  of  her  career,  in  addi- 
tion to  the  authorities  above  mentioned, 
see  the  'Lives'  of  Mrs.  Oldfleld '  (1730  and 
1741).  Genest's  '  English  Stage '  (1832),  and 
D.  Cook's  'Hours  of  the  Players'  (1881). 
In  the  last  named  is  a  summary  of  the  trial 
of  Lord  Mohun  for  the  murder  of  Mountford, 
the  actor  (g.vX  in  the  course  of  an  attempt 
by  Captain  Hill  to  abduct  Anne  Bracegirdle 
on  the  night  of  December  9, 1692.  In  this 
trial  the  actress  gave  evidence.— Jfr».  Dracc'

Bristol  (Gloucestershire).  The  first  re- 
ference in  the  local  records  of  Bristol  to 
professional  stage  representations  belongs 
to  1530.  ••  Stage  plays,"  we  are  told,  ••  were 
at  this  period  performed  at  the  cost  of  the 
magistrates ;  they  had  grown  out  of  the 
miracle  plays  of  the  clergy,  and,  there  being 
no  proper  theatre,  they  were  performed  at 
the  Guildhall "  ('  Bristol  Past  and  Present,' 
1881).  **  Between  Michaelmas.  1577,  and 
the  same  season.  1578,  the  Earl  of  Leicester's 
players  here  performed  before  the  mayor 
and  aldermen.  Shortly  after  we  find  Lord 
Berkeley's,  Lord  Charles  Howard's  and 
Lord  Sheflield's,  and  the  Earl  of  Sussex's, 
or  the  Lord  Chamberlain's  respective  com« 
panics  here  actingbefore  the  same  civic 
dignitaries.  .  .  .  The  last  of  these  com- 
puiies  is  that  to  which  Shakespeare  became 
attached  about  the  year  1587,  and  it  seems 
more  than  probable  that  he  may  have  per* 
formed  at  the  Guildhall.  ...  In  1503, 
Edward  Alleyne  played  with  the  company 
of  Lord  Strange  at  Bristol "  (Taylor's  '  Book 
About  Bristol ').  We  read  that  in  1614  no 
stsge  players  were  allowed  to  play  at  Bristol 
at  St.  James's  fair,  on  account  of  the  plague 
which  was  raging  in  Wales.  In  January. 
1704,  Queen  Anne,  in  answer  to  a  present- 
ment of  the  Grand  Jury  of  Bristol.  "  decreed 
an  order  for  the  regulation  of  playhouses, 
prohibiting  them  to  act  anything  contrary 
to  religion  and  ^ood  manners.  The  acting 
of  plays  in  Bristol  was  prohibited,  and 
the  theatre  in  Tucker  Street  was  purchased 
by  the  Presbyterians  and  converted  into  a 
meeting-house"  C  Bristol  Past  and  Present'). 
Four  years  later  another  grand  jury  pro- 
secuted "  Mr.  Power  and  his  company  for 
acting  stage  plays  within  the  liberties  of 
the  city."  In  addition  to  the  theatre  in 
Tucker  Street,  there  appear  to  have  been 
*'  temples  of  the  drama"  in  Stoke's  Croft 
and  in  St.  Augustine's  Place.  "Driven," 
however,  from  these  places  "by  the  by- 
laws," the  drama  took  refuge  in  a  theatre 
built  by  John  Hippisley  (q.v.)  at  Jacob's 
Well— at  the  foot  of  Brandon  Hill,  on  the 
north-west  side  of  Bristol.  It  is  at  this  point 
that  Richard  Jenkins  begins  his  '  Memoirs 
of  the  Bristol  Stage,'  which  memoirs  he  pro- 
fesses to  bring  down  to  1826.  Hippisley, 
he  teUs  us,  '*  annually  brought  down  to  his 
theatre  a  very  respectable  company,  col- 
lected from  the  London  houses,  who  plaved 
here  during  the  summer  season  only." 
Among  the  members  of  these  troupes,  at 
different  times,  were  Macklin,  Mrs.  Prit- 
chard,  Woodward,  Thomas  King,  and  John 
Pahner     Hippisley  died  in  1748.    In  1764,

flays  Jenkins,  "  the  arrival  of  Mr.  William 
Powell  from  Drary  Lane  Theatre  formed  a 
new  and  very  snccemful  era  with  the  com- 
pany at  Jacob's  Well,  and  a  theatrical 
mama  began  to  rage  at  Bristol."  Before 
that,  however.  **the  citizens  of  Bristol, 
beginning  to  take  into  consideration  the 
distance  at  which  the  Jacob's  Well  Theatre 
was  situated,  determined  to  erect  a  new 
one  in  the  heart  of  the  city."  A  site  in 
King  Street  was  selected,  and  there,  on 
Hay  80,  1766,  was  opened  a  playhouse  on 
which  upwards  of  £6000  had  been  expended. 
There  was,  however,  still  a  strong  local 
opposition  to  all  theatres,  and,  as  the  new 
one  was  not  licensed,  the  opening  enter- 
tainment was  described  as  *'a  concert  of 
music,"  between  the  parts  of  which  was 
given  gratis  **  a  specimen  of  rhetoric  "—to 
wit,  a  performance  of  *  The  Conscious  Lovers,' 
with  Powell  as  Young  BevU.  Between  1766 
and  1770.  Dodd.  Mrs.  Powell,  Charles  Hol- 
land. Baddeley,  Edward  Shuter.  and  Quick, 
all  s^peared  at  the  King  Street  Theatre. 
In  1778  the  building  received  the  royal 
licence,  with  all  the  advantages  thereto 
attaching.  In  1817  J.  B.  Watson  bocame 
its  manager.  We  read  of  visits  paid  to  it 
successively  by  the  elder  Kean  in  1815,  by 
Macready  in  1819,  by  Munden  in  1821,  by 
Miss  Foote  in  1828,  by  Miss  Smithson  in 
1881,  by  Charles  Kean  in  1842.  by  Buckstone 
in  1848,  and  by  Miss  H.  Fancit,  Creswick, 
and  Mdme.  Celeste  in  1848.  In  1855  the 
stock  company  included  Mrs.  William  Robert- 
son, Henry  Marston,  and  Miss  Marie  Wilton ; 
in  1858,  it  comprised  George  Rignold,  Arthur 
Wood,  and  Miss  Madge  Robertson ;  in  1867. 
Charles  Coghlan.  Miss  Kate  and  Miss  EUen 
Terry  also  had  their  early  training  here. 
J.  H.  Chute  iq.v.)t  who  had  managed  the 
theatre  for  some  years,  died  in  1878,  and  was 
succeeded  by  his  sons  George  and  James 
M.  Chute,  who.  in  their  turn,  were  followed 
in  1881  by  A.  Melville  and  in  1893  by  John 
Barker.

iq.v.)  as  Calantha  and  Miss  Virginia  C^lyle 
as  Panthea.  The  "broken  heart"  is  that 
of  Calantha,  who,  while  presiding  at  some 
court  revels,  hwrs  in  quick  succession  of 
the  death  of  her  father  (the  King  of  La- 
conia),  of  the  starving  of  Penthta  (sister 
of  IthocleM\  and,  finally,  of  the  murder  of 
Jthoeles,  her  lover,  who  nas  been  lured  into  a. 
chair  with  secret  springs,  and  there  stabbed 
by  an  enemv  (Orgilut).  **  She  finishes  the 
dance,  as  ii  nothing  particular  had  hap- 
pened. In  the  next  scene  she  places  a 
wedding-ring  on  the  dead  finger  of  Ithoele*. 
She  then  dies  of  a  Broken  Heart  "  (Oenest). 
"I  do  not  know."  says  Charles  Lamb, 
"  where  to  find,  in  any  play,  a  catastrophe 
so  grand,  so  solemn,  and  so  surprising  as 
this.  This  is  indeed,  according  to  Milton, 
to '  describe  high  passions  and  high  actions.' 
The  fortitude  of  the  Spartan  boy  who  let  a 
beast  gnaw  out  his  bowels  till  he  died  with- 
out expressing  a  groan,  is  a  faint  bodily 
image  of  this  ailaceration  of  the  spirit  and 
exenteration  of  the  inmost  mina,  which 
Calantha,  with  a  holy  violence  affainst  her 
nature,  keeps  closely  covered,  till  the  last 
duties  of  a  wife  and  a  queen  are  fulfilled."

°The  Two  Queens.'  "As  actor,"  writes  Tom 
Taylor,  "toe  English  stage  has  seen  few 
more  genial  and  humorous  mimics  than 
Buckstone.  His  art  was  of  the  English 
style,  broad  and  laughter  •  making.  He 
always  seemed  to  attach  more  importance 
to  the  humorous  than  to  any  other  ouality 
of  the  part  he  acted.  But  he  did  not  over- 
look the  general  aspect  of  his  parts,  though 
he  clothed  them  all  in  a  uniform  garb  of 
the  Buckstonian  humour,  conveyed  through 
the  inimitable  eye-twinkle  and  mouth-twist 
all  knew  so  well,  and  the  rich,  oily  chuckle 
of  a  voice  whose  sound  could  produce  a 
roar  before  the  actor  was  seen.  He  usually 
provoked  laughter,  however,  without  forcing, 
and  was  admirable  in  the  quiet,  unerring 
power  with  which  he  made  a  point."  "A 
more  singular  face."  says  Percy  Fitzgerald, 
"  could  not  be  devised— the  intensely  droll 
eyes  set  in  their  places  a  little  crookedly, 
a  delightfully  grotesque  nose,  cheeks  some- 
thing after  the  pattern  of  cutlets,  and  whose 
muscles  went  up  and  down,  delicately  re- 
laxed; and  uie  mouth  I  That,  drawing  it 
over  to  one  side,  into  a  comer,  as  it  were, 
until  by  tiie  act  a  sort  of  money-box  slit  or 
aperture  was  made ;  with  this  difference, 
that  the  good  thin^is  were  projected  out  of 
it,  instead  of  anything  being  dropped  in  ;— 
that  'twist'  was  special  to  himself."  See 
Pascoe's '  Dramatic  List '  (1880), '  Actors  and 
Actresses  of  Great  Britain  and  America,'  P. 
Fitzgerald's  'Memoirs'  and  *  Principles  of 
Comedy,'  etc.  While  manager  of  the  Hay- 
market,  Buckstone  appeared   in   several 


"  occasional"  pieces,  of  which  the  following 
are  examples  :— (I)  *  Mr.  Buckstone's  Ascent 
of  Mount  Parnassus : '  a  pUee  de  eireotutanee 
by  J.R.  Planch^  performed  in  March.  1853, 
and  forming  "  a  sort  of  travesty  of  Albert 
Smith's  famous  entertainment,  *  The  Ascent 
of  Mont  Blanc,'  then  in  the  height  of  its 
popularity."  (2)  *  Mr.  Buckstone's  Yoyage

of  a  printer.  Educated  at  St.  Paul's  School. 
London,  he  succeeded  to  his  father's  busi- 
ness, and  became  editor  of  a  monthly  mis- 
cellany. Some  practice  as  an  amateur  actor, 
however,  led  him  to  the  stage,  and  in  1826  he 
Joined  a  company  '*on  circuit."  His  first 
appearance  in  London  was  made  in  1881  at 
the  Pavilion  Theatre  as  Wormwood  in  '  The 
Lottery  Ticket,'  and  in  the  following  year 
he  had  a  short  engagement  at  the  Ray- 
market,  during  which  he  played  Marrall  to 
the  Overreach  of  Edmund  Kean.  In  1884  he 
went  to  America,  making  his  dibut  at  the> 
Arch  Street  Theatre,  Philadelphia,  on  Sep- 
tember 3,  as  Wormvsiod,  and  as  Dr.  OUapod 
in  '  The  Poor  Gentleman.'  At  Philadelphia 
he  remained  for  four  years.  His  New  York 
dibut  tookplace  on  October  81, 1837,  at  the 
National  Theatre  as  Guy  Goodluek  in  'John 
Jones.'  He  was  at  the  same  theatre  in 
Febraary,  1839,  appearing  later  in  the  year 
at  Niblo's.  In  1840  he  was  at  the  Park. 
In  1840,  also,  he  "  fitted  up  "  a  circus  build- 
ing in  Chestnut  Street,  Philadelphia,  open- 
ing it  under  the  name  of  *'  The  National 
nieatre."  In  April.  1841,  he  became  manager 
of  the  National  Theatre,  New  York,  where 
he  was  as  prosperous  as  at  Philadelphia  ; 
but  the  building  was  unhappily  destroyed 
br  fire,  and  to  Philadelphia  ne  went  again. 
Here  ho  leased  successively  the  Chestnut 
and  Arch  Street  Theatres,  assuming  the 
management  also  of  the  Washington  Tlieatre 
and  of  the  Front  Street  Theatre,  Baltimore. 
In  July,  1848.  he  undertook  the  direction  of 
Palme's  Opera  House,  New  York,  henceforth 
to  be  known  as  Burton's  Theatre.  Here  he 
held  sway  till  September.  1856,  laying  the 
main  foundation  of  his  celebrity  as  actor  and 
manager.  He  re vived '  A  M  idsummer  Night's 
Dream.' '  Twelfth  Night,' « The  Merry  Wives 
of  Windsor,' '  The  Winter's  Tale,'  and  'The 
Tempest,'  himself  playing  Bottom,  Sir  Toby 
Belch,  FaUtaff,  AuiolveuM,  and  Caliban.  He 

Sroduced  dramatizations  of  '  Dombey  and 
on,'  •  David  Copperfield,'  *  Oliver  Twist.' 
'Nicholas  NickleW  and  'Pickwick,'  him- 
self appearing  as  Captain  Cuttle,  Bumble, 
Mieatcber,  Squeert,  and  Sam  Welter.  Among 
other  productions  were  those  of '  The  Serious 
Family'  and  of  *The  Toodles'  (1848),  in 
which  he  made  his  special  successes  re- 
spectively as  Aminaddb  Sleek  and  Timothy 
Toodle.  In  1860  he  played  Touehttone  at 
the  Aston  Place  Opera  House,  and  in 
1853  he  was  the  original  William  Link 
in  'The  Fox  Hunt.'  In  1856  he  opened 
in  New  York  the  Metropolitan  or  Burton's 
New  Theatre,  and  in  the  following  year 
fiffured  there  as  Dogberry.  He  left  the 
Aletropolitan  in  1858.  and  in  1859  made  at 
Niblo's  what  proved  to  be  his  lost  appear- 
ance in  New  York.  His  last  performance 
on  any  stage  was  at  Hamilton,  Canada,  on 
December  16,  1859.  Notable  impersona- 
tions hy  Burton,  beside  those  named  above, 
were  Sir  George  Thunder,  Job  Thornherry^ 
WhifkerandoM,  Grave*  (in  '  Money ';,  and 
Triplet  (in  '  Masks  and  Faces ').  He  was 
the  author  of  several  dramatic  pieces :  *  The

co-lessee  with  Miss  Mane  Wilton  (Mrs.  Ban- 
croft) of  the  Prince  of  Wales's  Theatre, 
London ;  in  1867,  however,  the  partnership 
vras  dissolved,  Byron  undertaking  the  direc- 
tion of  the  Alexandra  Theatre  (and  after- 
wards of  the  Theatre  Royal  and  tne  Amphi- 
theatreX  Liverpool  These  latter  speculations 
were  disastrous.  "  His  forte,"  wrote  Button 
Cook,  "  lies  in  the  composition  of  facetious 
dialogue;  in  that,  I  think,  consists  his 
great  hold  upon  popular  favour.  But  his 
wit  and  humour  have  not  been  more  heartUy 
relished  and  admired  than  by  his  critics. 
T^ue,  they  have  censured  his  puns  ;  but  the 
canons  of  literary  taste  have  immemoriaUy 
forbidden  puns  and  playing  upon  words  in 
all  works  of  pretence.  .  .  .  Mr.  Byron's 
inventiveness,  and  the  ingenuity  he  exerts 
in  the  construction  of  his  plots,  may  be 
viewed  as  prored  by  the  extraordinary 
number  and  success  of  his  plays.  .  .  .  Mr. 
Byron  has  the  consolation  of  knowing  that 
his  burlesques  have  pleased  very  many,  and 
have  been  generally  regarded  as  reputable 
specimens  of  their  claas.  .  .  .  The  place  he 
may  by-and-by  be  allotted  among  dramatists 
it  is  not  for  me  to  determine.  .  .  .  But  I 
think  that  Mr.  Byron's  comedies  are  un- 

Suestionably  to  be  accounted,  in  these 
ays,  as  excellent  and  laudable  as  were  the 
comedies  of  Reynolds,  O'Keefe,  Morton, 
and  Holcroft  in  the  last  century. . . .  Further, 
it  will  be  always  remembered,  when  Mr.

Byron's  claims  to  applause  are  ander  con- 
sideration, that  altnoQgh  he  has  produced 
a  long  list  of  pli^s,  ne  has  very  rarely 
borrowed  from  a  foreign  source,  or  dealt 
with  a  plot  not  of  his  own  derising ;  that 
his  worVs  have  been  irreproachable  as  to 
their  moral  character,  as  his  Jests  have  been 
firee  from  every  suspicion  of  coarseness  or 
indecorum.  .  .  .  Asan  actor,  within  a  some- 
what narrow  range  of  impersonation,  he  has

West  as  Lictnia  (his  wife},  and  other  parts 
by  Archer,  Yamold,  ana  8.  Penley.  The 
plot  shows  how  Oracchuis,  after  snccessfully 
pleading  for  Vettitu,  is  elected  Tribune, 
and  how  the  Patricians,  by  the  aid  of  Dnmu. 
undermine  his  popularity,  so  that  he  is  led 
to  commit  suicide.  The  piay  was  performed 
in  New  York  in  April,  1825,  with  Ck>oper  in 
the  title  ptul,  Placide  as  Mariu»,  and  Mrs. 
Bunes  as  Cornelia;  and  in  April,  1827,

OaiuB  Harius,  The  History  and 
Pall  of.  A  tragedy  by  Thomas  Otway 
(g. v.),  performed  at  Dorset  Garden  in  1680, 
with  Betterton  in  the  title  part,  Smith  as 
his  son,  Qlllow  as  MeteUu*^  Williams  as 
Sylla,  Mrs.  Barry  as  Lavinia^  Underbill 
as  StUpitius,  and  Nokes  as  the  Nurge  ;  re- 
▼ived  at  the  Haymarkot  in  1707,  and  at 
Drury  Lane  in  1715  and  1717.  "Otway 
acknowledges  in  the  prologue  that  about 
half  of  this  play  is  taken  from '  Romeo  and 
Juliet'"  [q.v.],  ** Mariiu  junior  is  in  love 
with  Lavinia,  and  beloved  by  her.  Her 
father,  Meteltus,  who  is  of  the  other  party, 
in^ts  on  her  marrying  of  Sylla.  The 
greater  part  of  the  Nurse's  character  is 
retained,  and  Sulpitius  is  a  bad  Mereutio. 
.  .  .  For  the  history  of  Caius  Marius  see 
Plutarch.  Otway  neither  follows  history  ex- 
.     actly,  nor  deviates  grossly  from  it "  (Qenest). 

Calantha.  The  heroine  of  Ford's 
*  Broken  Heart '  (q.  v.). 

Calanthe,  in  Banim's  'Damon  and 
Pythias,'  is  betrothed  to  Pythias. 

Oalaynos.  A  tragedy  by  O.  H.  Boker 
<g.v.),  produced  at  Sadler's  Wells  Theatre,

Alda  (his  wife),  Hopkins  as  Soto  (Don  Luit^ 
servant),  and  Mrs.  H.  Marston  as  Martina 
{.Donna  Alda's  maid).  "The  plot,"  wrote 
Qeorge  Daniel,  "is  simple  and  compact; 
the  language  is  poetical  and  elegant,  often 
dignified  and  impassioned ;  the  characters 
are  skilfully  conceived  and  elaborately 
wrought." 

Oalohns.  A  Trojan  priest  in  'Troilus

Oalcraft)  Jolin  William  [n^  Cole].

took  to  the  stage.  Appearing  at  Edinburgh . 
for  the  first  time,  in  1819,  as  foffo  to  Edmund

of  Lammermoor '  (^.v.),  in  which  he  played 
Edgar f  and  of  other  plays. 


Calderon  de  la  Barca,  Pedro.    It 

is  thought  that  John  Fletcher  may  have 
been  indebted  to  this  famous  Spanish 
writer  (1601-1681)  for  the  plot  of  his  *^  Elder 
Brother'  (1637) ;  and  it  is  tolerably  certain 
that  Oeoroe  Diqby.  Earl  of  Bristol, 
based  his  comedies,  *'Tis  Better  than  it 
Was'  and  *  Worse  and  Worse'  (1662-1665X

December,  1613.  "  From  a  dramatic  point 
of  view,  none  of  them  possesses  much  im-

and  less  original  than  thoae  of  York  and 
Woodkirk,  and  that  ita  best,  both  of  pathos 
and  humour,  appears  to  be  borrowed,  it 
must  be  allowed  on  the  other  hand  that  its 
author  was  possessed  of  an  unusual  share 
of  good  taste. . . .  There  is  less  in  the  Chester 
plays  to  jar  on  modem  feelings  than  in  any 
other  of  the  cycles.  The  humour  is  kept 
more  within  bounds,  the  religious  tone  is 
far  higher,  and  the  speeches  of  the  Expositor 
at  the  end  of  each  play  shows  that  a  real 
eflFort  was  made  to  serre  the  religious  oblect 
to  which  all  Miracle  plays  were  ostensibly 
directed."

GIBBER 


CIBBEB 


Srologue.  A  little  later  he  made  some  mark 
y  playing  Fondlewije  in  *  The  Old  Bachelor' 
in  unitatu>n  of  Dogget,  the  first  interpreter 
nf  the  part.  Still,  lie  did  not  sufficiently 
impress  either  the  patentees  or  his  col- 
leagues with  a  full  sense  of  his  histrionic 
capacity,  and  at  last  determined  to  write  a 
good  part  for  himself.  This  was  Sir  Novelty 
FoBhxon  in  his  *  Love's  Last  Shift'  (q.v.\ 
which  was  recommended  to  the  manage- 
ment  of  Drury  Lane  by  Sontiieme  iq.vX 
and  dnly  accepted  and  produced  (1696).  It 
would  seem  tnat  later  In  1606  Gibber  was 
for  a  time  associated  with  the  Betterton 
company  at  Lincoln's  Inn  Fields,  but  it  is 
certain  that  in  1697  he  figured  at  Dmry 
Lane  as  LongvilU  in  his  own  'Woman's 
Wit '  (^.r.).  Meanwhile  Sir  John  Vanbrugh 
had  paid  him  the  compliment  of  writing 

*  The  Relapse '  as  a  sequel  to  *  Love's  Last 
Shift,'  Sir  Novelty  Fashion  being  therein 
represented  as  ennobled,  with  the  title  of 
Lord  Foppinffton.  The  part  was  assigned 
by  Vanbrugh  to  Gibber,  who  says  that  the 
play  (which  was  produced  at  Drury  Lane) 
gave  him,  as  a  comedian,  **a  second  flight 
of  reputation  along  with  it."  In  1700  he 
was  seen  at  the  same  theatre  as  the  Duke 
of  Olotter  in  his  famous  adaptation  of 
Shakespeare's  *  Richard  III.'  (q.v.y—A  work 
which  oeld  the  stage,  to  the  exclusion  of 
the  original  text,  for  a  centuir  and  three- 
quarters.  Gibber  was  also  the  original 
Clodio  in  his  'Love  makes  a  Man'  (1701), 
the  first  representative  of  his  '  School  Boy ' 
(1702),  the  original  Don  Manuel  in  his  '  She 
Would  and  She  Would  Not'  a702X  the  first 
Jjord  Foppington  in  his  *  Gareless  Husband ' 
(1704),  and  the  first  Pacuviut  in  his  *  Perollo 
and  Izadora'  (1705).  He  was  also  the 
original  Captain  Brazen  in  'The  Recruiting 
Officer '  (1706).  In  1706-8  he  was  a  member 
of  Owen  Swiney's  troupe  at  the  Haymarket, 
where  he  was  the  original  Celadon  in  his 

*  Gomical  Lovers '  (o.v.,  adapted  from  Dry- 
den),  Atall  in  his  *  Double  Gallant'  (q.vX 
and  Lord  George  Brilliant  in  his  'li^d/s 
lAst  Stake'  (7.V.),  besides  being  the  first 
Gibbet  in  '  The  Beaux'  Stratagem^  (q.v.).  In 
1708-0  (the  rival  companies  having  united) 
he  was  again  at  Drury  Lane,  figuring  in 
such  characters  as  Ben  in  '  Love  for  Love,' 
GtoMter  in  *  King  Lear,'  GUndower  in  'Henry 
IV.,'  Cranmer  in  '  Henry  Vm. '  SubtU  in 
'The  Alchemist,'  and  loffo.  In  1709  he 
became,  with  Swiney,  Wilks,  and  Dogget, 
ioint-manager  of  the  Haymarket.  In  1710 
ne  returned  to  Drury  Jjano,  with  which  he 
remained  closely  connected  for  the  next 
twenty-three  years.  In  1714  he  became  one 
of  the  licensees,  the  others  being  Sir  Richard 
Steele,  Wilks,  Booth,  and  Dogget,  of  whom 
the  last  named  speedily  retired  (with  com- 
pensation). In  the  period  between  1710 
and  1733  Gibber  was  tho  original  repre- 
sentative of  Gloster  in  *  Jane  Snore,'  Ttnsel 
in  'The  Drummer,'  Dr.  Wolf  in  his  own 
'Nonjuror'  [which  greatly  offendpd  the 
Jacobites],  Wilding  in  his  'Refusal,'  Acho- 
reus  in  his  'Giesar  in  Egypt,'  Sir  Franeit 
Wronqhead  in  his  (and  Vnnbrugh's)  'Pro- 
Tokcd    Husband,'  and   PhilaxUua   in   his 


'Love  in  a  Riddle.'  In  1730,  in  succes- 
sion to  Laurence  Eusden,  and  apparently 
in  recognition  of  his  anti-Jacobite  ten- 
dency, he  was  appointed  Poet  Laureat**. 
In  1733  he  retired  from  the  stage,  only 
to  return  to  it  in  the  following  year. 
His  last  appearances  were  made  at  Govent 
Garden  in  1745,  as  Pandulph  in  his  adap- 
tation from  Shakespeare  called  '  Papal 
Tyranny  in  the  Reign  of  King  John'  (q.v.). 
In  December,  1757,  he  died.  In  addition  to 
plays  above  name»d  he  was  the  author  of 
*  Xerxes'  (1699).  'The  Rival  Fools'  (1709), 
'The  Rival  Queens '  (1710), '  Ximena'  (1712), 
'Venus  and  Adonis'  (1716X  'Bulls  and 
Bears '  (1715), ' MyrtiUo '  (1716),  'Damon  and 
Phillida'  (1729),  and.  with  Sir  John  Van- 
brugh, 'The  Provoked  Husband*  (1728). 
He  published  an  edition  of  his  plays,  in 
qnaixo,  in  1721.  In  1740  came  his  famous 
'  Apology '  for  his  Life  (q.v.) ;  in  1742,  '  A 
Letter  from  Mr.  Gibber  to  Mr.  Pope,'  who 
had  made  him  the  hero  of  '  The  Dunciad,' 
in  succession  to  Theobald;  in  1748,  'The 
Egotist ;  or,  C^lley  upon  Gibber ; '  in  1744^ 
'Another  Occasional  Letter  from  Mr.  Gibber 
to  Mr.  Pope ; '  in  1747, '  The  Gharacter  and 
Gonductof  Gicero.'  SaysHazlitt:  "Gibber 
is  the  hero  of  ^The  Dunciad  ;'  but  it  cannot 
be  said  of  him  that  he  was '  by  merit  raised 
to  that  bad  eminence.'  He  was  pert,  not 
dull ;  a  coxcomb,  not  a  blockhead  ;  Tain, 
but  not  malicious.  ...  In  his  plays,  his 
personal  character  perhaps  predominates 
too  much  over  the  inventiveness  of  his  Muse ; 
but  so  far  from  being  dull,  he  is  everywhere 
light,  fluttering,  andairy.  His  pleasure  Id 
himself  made  nim  desirous  to  please :  but 
his  fault  was,  that  he  was  too  soon  satisfied 
with  what  he  did.  .  .  .  Gibber,  in  short, 
though  his  name  has  been  handed  down 
to  us  as  a  bye-word  of  impudent  preten- 
sion and  impenetrable  dullness  ny  th» 
classical  pen  of  his  accomplished  rival 
[Popel,  was  a  gentleman  and  a  scholar  of 
the  old  school ;  a  man  of  wit  and  pleasantry 
in  conversation,  a  diverting  mimic,  an  ex- 
cellent actor,  an  admirable  dramatic  critic^ 
and  one  of  the  best  comic  writers  of  his 
age"  ('The  English  Gomic  Writers').  In 
addition  to  the  authorities  above  named, 
see  the  '  Biographia  Dramatica  *  (1812), 
Genest's  *  English  Stage'  (1832),  Lowe's 
'  English  Theatrical  Literature '  (1888),  etc. 

Gibber,  Susaxma  Maria.  Actress 
and  vocalist,  sister  of  Dr.  T.  A.  Ame  (9. v.) ; 
bom  February,  1714,  died  January.  1766; 
made  her  first  appearance  on  the  stage  at 
the  Haymarket  Theatre  in  1732  as  the 
heroine  of  Lampe's  opera,  'Amelia.'  In 
April,  1784,  she  married  Theophilus  (fibber 
(q.v.),  and  thereafter  acted  nnder  his  name. 
Her  dlbut  in  the  non-musical  drama  took 
place  at  Drury  Lane  in  January,  1736,  as 
the  original  representative  of  Zara  in  Aaron 
Hill's  tragedy  so  named  (q.v.).  She  stayed 
at  this  theatre  till  1738,  when  her  husband 
brought  an  action  in  which  she  was  accused 
of  infidelity  with  one  of  his  friends  named 
Soper.  Gibber  claimed  damages  to  the 
amoont  of  £5000,  but  was  awarded  onlj

atre,  London,  October  31,  1853,  with  E. 
Wright  in  the  chief  part.  "It  was  con- 
demned," savs  M.  Williams,  "because  Uie 
farce  was  really  a  bad  one  ;  but  independent 
of  this,  the  actor,  whose  humour  was  always

comedy,*^  says  the  *  Biographia  Dramatica,' 
"  was  written  not  long  after  the  Restoration, 
and  was  intended  to  throw  an  idea  of  the 
utmost  odium  on  the  Roundhead  party  and 
their  proceedings."  The  same  authority 
speaks  of  "the  drollery  of  the  character  of 
Teaguej  and  the  strong  picture  of  absurd 
fanaticism,  mingled  with  indecent  pride, 
drawn  in  those  of  Mr.  Dav.Mrs.  Day,  and 
Abel."  Pepys,  who  saw  ^The  Committee ' 
performed  in  1668,  thought  it  **  a  merrr  but 
indifferent  play,"  but  evidently  enjoyed 
Teague  as  represented  by  Lacy.  The  piece

ruary, 1788.    See  Obadiah.

translations  of  the  first  and  second  satires 
of  Juvenal

berry^  his  Qravedigger^"  wrote'J.  R.  Planch^, 
"  wUl  never  be  forgotten  by  those  who  were 
fortunate  enough  to  witness  them  "—a 
dictum  repeated  by  Tom  Taylor,  who  says, 
"His  Shakesperean  clowns  were  incom- 
parably the  most  original  and  telling  I  have 
seen  on  the  stage ;  and  his  Marau  in  *  A 
New  Way  to  Pay  Old  Debts'  held  equal 
rank."  **  His  stvle,"  wrote  C.  J.  Mathews, 
"  was  peculiarly  nis  own.  He  had  a  queer 
dry  humour  that  never  faUed  of  effect.  He 
hard  the  art  of  nvinc  value  to  phrases  of 
themselves  valueless,  by  his  incisive  mode 
of  utterance,  his  affected  stolidity,  and  his 
accompanied  original  facial  expression."

a  translation,  someChing  improved,  of  '  Les 
Bourgeoises  &  la  Mode '  of  Mons.  D'Ancourt. 
.  .  .  The  language  is  pleasing,  and  the  plot 
of  the  two  wives  against  tneir  husbands 
well  conceived  and  admirably  executed." 
'"The  Confederacy,'"  says  Uazlitt,  "  is  a 
come^  of  infinite  contrivance  and  intrigue, 
with  a  matchless  spirit  of  impudence.  It  is 
a  fine  careless  expos6  of  heartless  want  of 
principle  "  (*  English  Comic  Writers ').  **Dick 
AmUt  and  his  mother  make  a  choice  pair, 
and  Flippanta  the  lady's  maid  is  a  fine 
spocimenof  theefihronteryof  herkind.  The 
morality  of  this  comedy  is  on  Yanbrugh's 


usual  level  .  .  .  and  the  rascally  Dick  i» 
made  perfectly  happy  at  the  close  "  (A.  W. 
Ward).  The  comedy  was  revived  in  1705, 
1709, 1720,  and  1726.  Then  came  some  mor«

COBIOLANUS 


Oorinna.  Daughter  of  Gripe  in  Van* 
BBUUH's  *  Confederacy '  (9. v.).  Sne  pairs  off 
with  Dick  AmUt, 

Oorinne.  (1)  A  drama  in  four  acts,  by 
BOBEHT  Buchanan  (9. v.),  first  performed  at 
the  Lyceum  Theatre,  London,  on  June  26, 
1876.  with  Mrs.  Fairfax  as  the  heroine,  C. 
Warner  as  Victor  de  Beauvoir,  H.  Forrester 
as  RaotU,  Atkins  as  Maratt  and  Johnston 
Forbes-Robertson  as  the  Abbi  de  Laro$e. 
(2)  A  drama  founded  upon  Mrs.  Otto  Von 
Booth's  novel  of  the  same  name,  and  first 
performed  at  the  Standard  Theatre,  London, 
May  28, 1885. 

OoriolaniiB.  (1)  A  tragedy  in  five 
acts,  by  William  Shakespeare  iq.v.),  first 
printed  in  the  Folio  of  1623.  It  is  based 
upon  the  story  of  Cioriolanus  as  told  by  Sir 
Thomas  North  in  his  translation  of  Bishop 
Amyot's  yersion  of  Plutarch's  *  Lives.'  So 
closely,  indeed,  does  the  poet  follow  North 
that  some  of  his  longer  passaecs  are  '  simply 
Plutarch  put  into  metre.'  The  play  seems 
to  have  been  written  in  or  about  ltK)9,  and 
belongs,  therefore,  to  Shakespeare's  later 
period  and  manner.  [For  details  of  the 
verse-tests  made  by  Professor  Ingram,  see 
the  New  Shakspere  Society's  Transac- 
tions, 1874.]  Of  the  earlier  performances  of 
the  tragedy  there  are  no  records.  The  first 
mention  of  the  work  in  theatrical  history 
has  reference  to  the  adaptation  made  by 
Nahum  Tate  {q.v.),  and  represented  at  the 
Theatre  RoyaJ  in  1082.    This  was  entitled 

*  The  Ingratitude  of  a  Ck>mmonwealth  ;  or, 
The  FaU  of  Caius  Martins  Coriolanus. ' 
<Senest  describes  the  adaptation  (which  was 
in  five  acts)  as  "  on  the  whole  a  very  bad  one." 
Tate,  he  says,  **  omits  a  good  deal  of  the 
original  to  make  room  for  the  new  fifth  act. 
His  own  additions  are  insipid,  and  he  makes 
numberless  unnecessary  changes  in  the 
dialogue  ;  but  the  first  four  acts  of  his  play 
do  not  differ  very  materially  from  Shake* 
speare.  He  has  been  guilty  of  a  manifest 
aosurdity  in  turning  VcUeria  into  a  talkative 
lantastiod  lady.  ...  He  has  made  one 
considerable  improvement.  Shakespeare 
has  been  guilty  of  a  mistake  in  repeatedly 
saying  that  Caius  Marciue  was  aloiie  when 
he  forced  his  way  into  Ck>rioli.  Tate  uni- 
formly represents  him  as  not  being  quite 
alone  on  this  occasion.  Plutarch  says  he 
2iad  a  very  few  friends  with  him."  Tate 
observes,  in  his  dedication,  that  ho  chose 

*  Coriolanus'  for  adaptation  because  "  there 
appeared  in  some  passages  no  small  re* 
semblance  with  the  busie  faction  of  our 
own  time."  He  adds:  "Whatever  the 
miperstructure  prove,  it  was  my  good 
fortune  to  build  upon  a  rock."  The  names 
of  the  performers  in  Tate's  play  are  not 
known.  A  second  adaptation  of  *Corio* 
lanus'— the  work  of  John  Dennis  (a.v.)— 
was  brought  out  at  Drury  Lane  in  Novem- 
ber, 1719,  under  the  title  of  '  The  Invader  of 
his  Country ;  or.  The  Fatal  Resentment.' 
*' Dennis,"  says  Genest,  "has  retained 
about  half  of  the  original  play,  which  he 
has  altered  much  for  the  worse  "  (see  '  The 
English  Stage ').    The  cast  presented  Booth 


as  CoriolaHus,  Mills  aM  Aufidius,  Cory  as 
Meneniuit  Walker  as  Bnittu,  Mrs.  Porter 
as  Voiumnia,  and  Mrs.  Thurmond  as  Vir- 
gilia.  The  piece  was  acted  only  thrice,  and 
Dennis,  in  his  dedication  to  the  Lord  Cham- 
berlain, attacked  the  management  and  cer- 
tain of  the  actors.  A  third  adaptation  of 
'  Coriolanus ' — attributed  to  Thomas  Sheri- 
dan, and  entitled '  Coriolanus ;  or.The  Roman 
Matron' — was  brought  out  at  Covent  Garden 
in  December,  1754.  This  was  an  amalgam  of 
Shakespeare  and  James  Thomson,  whose 
*  (Joriolanns '  (see  below)  had  been  acted 
there  in  1749.  Sheridan's  piece  had  been  pro- 
duced in  Dublin,  with  Mossop  as  Coriolanug. 
At  Covent  Garden  Sheridan  himself  appeared 
as  the  hero,  with  Shuter  as  Meneniut,  R>an 
as  TuUus,  Peg  Woffington  as  Veturia,  and 
Mrs.  Bellamy  as  Volumnia.  For  details  of 
the  adaptation  see  Genest,  who  records  a 
performance  of  '  Coriolanus '  at  Covent  Gar- 
den on  March  14, 17SS,  with  Smith  in  the 
title  part,  Mrs.  Hamilton  as  Veturia^  and 
the  role  of  Volumnia  omitted.  The  play 
called  *  Coriolanus  ;  or.  The  Roman  Matron,' 
produced  at  Drury  Lane  in  February,  1789, 
was  published  in  the  same  year  with  She- 
ridan's name  as  the  adapter.  Genest, 
however,  believed  that  it  should  be  attri- 
buted to  J.  P.  Komble,  "as  it  differs  but 
little,  or  nothing,  from  the  alteration  which 
Kemble  afterwards  avowed."  "The  first 
three  acts  were  judiciously  altered  from 
Shakespeare,  with  omissions  only;"  into 
the  other  two  acts  lines  by  Thomson  were 
introduced.  Kemble,  of  course,  played  Cori' 
olanut,  with  Wroushton  as  AujUiiui^  Bad- 
deley  as  Meneniut ,  airs.  Farmer  as  Virgilia, 
Mrs.  Ward  as  Valeria,  and  Mrs.  Siddons  as 
Volumnia.  "  CoTriolanus,"  says  Genest, 
"proved  to  be  Kemble's  grand  part." 
**  He  was  Coriolanus'  self,"  says  VV.  Robson ; 
"his  voice,  his  own  private  manner,  his 
very  rigidity,  completed  the  identity" 
('The  Old  Playgoer').  Komble  and  his 
sister  were  seen  again  in  this  piece  at 
Covent  Garden  in  November,  18(>3,  when 
they  were  supported  by  Miss  Brunton 
(Mrs.  Yates)  as  Vtrai^ux,  Pope  as  Aufidiut, 
and  Mnnden  as  Menenius.  On  Novenv 
ber  19, 1819,  Macready  appeared  at  Covent 
Ganlen  as  Coriolanus,  and  was  saluted 
by  Barry  Ck)rnwall,  in  a  sonnet,  as  "the 
noblest  Roman  of  them  alL"  The  credit 
of  restoring  to  the  stage  the  text  of  Shake- 
speare's play,  almost  unadulterated,  ap- 
pears to  belong  to  Blliston,  who  produced 
the  tragedy  (eoited  by  G.  Soane)  at  Drury 
Lane  in  January,  1820,  with  Edmund  Kean 
in  the  title  rdle,  S.  Penley  as  Aujldius, 
Gattie  as  Menenius,  Mrs.  Robinson  as 
Viryilia,  and  Mrs.  Glover  as  Volumnia. 
"  Kean,"  Genest  says,  "  ought  not  to  have 
attempted  Coriolanus;  his  figure  totally 
disqualified  him  for  the  part."  The  next 
Coriolanus,  in  order  of  time,  seems  to  liave 
been  John  Vandenhoff,  who  played  the  rdle 
in  various  provincial  centres  in  1822-3. 
Later  revivals  in  London  include  those  at 
Covent  Garden  in  December.  1833.  and  in 
March,  1838.  in  both  of  which  Macready 
reappeared,  supported,  in  the  latter  year,

Coventry  Flays  (The)»  ho  called,  are 
to  be  found  in  manuscript  (dating  about  1468) 
in  the  Cottonian  collection  in  the  British 
Museum.  They  are  forty-two  in  number,  and 
are  associated  with  Coventry  on  the  authority 
of  an  inscription  bv  Dr.  Richard  Jama«t, 
Sir  Robert  Cotton's  librarian  (about  1030)— 
*'  Vulgo  dicitur  hie  liber  Ludus  Coventriae 
sive  Ludus  Corporis  Christi."  A.  W.  Pol- 
lard, however,  expresses  his  belief  that 
"further  investigation  will  lead  to  the  de- 
cisive connection  of  this  cycle  not  with 
Coventry,  but  with  the  Eastern  counties. 
As  Professor  Ten  Brink  has  pointed  out,  the 
dialect  and  scribal  peculiarities  of  these 

Slavs  belong  rather  to  the  North -East 
lidlands  than  to  the  neighbourhood  of 
Coventry"  ('English  Miracle  Plays').  A 
passage  at  the  close  of  the  prologue  suggests 
that  the  pieces  were  performed  not  only 
in  Coventry  but  in  other  towns.  "The 
practice  vras  to  perform  the  first  twenty- 
eight  plays,  covering  the  period  from  Crea- 
tion of  the  World  to  the  Betrayal  of  Christy 
one  year,  and  the  remaining  plavs,  up  to 
Doomsday,  the  next  year."  "  In  this  cycle 
the  didactic  speeches  elsewhere  assigned 
to  a  '  Doctor '  or  '  Expositor  *  are  delivered 
by  an  allegorical  personage  called  Con- 
templado.  Death  is  personified,  and  a 
play  on  the  Salutation  is  prefaced  by  a  long 
prologue  In  heaven,  in  which  the  speakers 
are  (besides  Deus  Pater  and  Dens  Filius) 
Veritas,  Misericordia,  Justicia,  and  Pax. 
The  tendency  towards  the  personification 
of  abstract  ideas  is  a  mark  of  late  date  in 
the  history  of  the  miracle  plays,  and  helps 
to  link  this  cycle  to  the  earlier  moralities'* 
(Pollard).    "I  cannot  but  think " (says  A.

Or,  rather,  like  Tragedr  glrlnit  a  rout. 
His  fonb  have  their  follies  so  lost  in  a  crowd 
Of  virtues  and  feelingi.  that  Folly  grows  proud  t 
And  coxcombs,  alike  In  their  failings  alone. 
Adopting  hla  portzslti  are  proud  of  their  ova.*

the  period  ai  which  'Cjrmbeline* 
written,  we  hare  no  precise  information. 
See,  on  this  point,  the  rarioas  theories  of 
Tleck,  Coleridge,  Charles  Knight,  C.  M. 
Ingleby,  and  F.  G.  Fleay.  An  adi4>tation 
of  the  play,  made  by  T.  d'Urfey  (9.  v.),  and 
entitled  *The  In^nred  Princess;  or.  The 
Fatal  Wager,'  wasperf ormed  at  the  Theatre 
Royal  in  1682.  The  names  of  some  of  the 
cluuacten  were  changed :  PiMnio  was 
tamed  into  a  lord,  and  made  the  father  of 
Clariua;  the  part  of  Quideriva  was  given 
to  Arviragutt  and  so  forth.  **  This,"  says 
Genest,  "is  a  rile  alteration,  but  still  enough 
of  the  original  is  retained  to  prevent  the 
play  from  oeing  a  bad  one.*'  This  adapta* 
uon  was  performed  at  Lincoln's  Inn  fields 
in  Janoary.  1780,  under  the  title  of  *  Cymbe- 
line :  or.  The  Fatal  Wager,'  with  Leigh  as 
CyinbeUne,  Ryan  a»  Uraacet  [Po<<AiimtM], 
C.  Bollock  as  SkaUUion  [a  Frenchman,  who 
takes  the  part  of  laichimo]^  Mrs.  Bollock  as 
Eugenia  (lvMgen\,  Boheme  as  Pi$anio^  H. 
Bollock  as  ChUn^  and  Mrs.  Giffard  as  the 
Oussn;  it  was  also  represented  at  CoToit 
Garden  in  Blarch,  1738,  with  Rvan  as  Cym- 
UUiUt  Delane  as  Urtaca^  Walker  as  ^SAot- 
Uiion^  Cluqpman  as  Cloterit  Mrs.  Templar  as 
Bugenia,  wad  Mrs.  Hallun  as  the  Queen, 
Genest  records  a  performance  of '  Cymbeline ' 
0>romoted  by  T.  Cibber)  at  the  Haymarket 
in  November,  1744,  hot  whether  or  no  the 
play  was  Shakespeare's  is  not  known.  A 
similar  nncertainty  attaches  to  the  'Cym- 
beline' performed  for  Woodward's  benefit 
at  Covent  Garden  on  April  7,  1746,  with 
Ryan  as  PosthumiUt  Uale  as  I<uhimo, 
Bridge  water  as  Pitanio,  Mrs.  Pritchard  as 
Imogen,  and  the  beneflciaire  as  Guideritu, 
The  year  1755  saw  the  poblication  of  an 
adaptation  of  'Cymbeline'  by  one  Charles 
Marsh.  In  February,  1759,  the  management 
of  Covent  Garden  prodoced  a  vernon  of 
'Cymbeline'  made  by  William  Hawkins 
(Professor  of  Poetry  at  Oxford),  in  which 
the  adapter  sooght  to  redoce  Shakespeare's 
work  to  "the  regularity  of  a  modem  tra- 
gedy." *  *  The  chaiacter  of  lachimo  is  tot^y 
omitted,  and  the  first  part  of  that  of  Pott- 
humus.  The  Queen  is  spoken  of  as  latc^ 
dead  Cloten  is  made  a  serioos  character/' 
and  so  forth  (see  Genest).  In  this  pro- 
duction  the  Imogen  was  Mrs.  Vincent  (Mm. 
Bellamy  having  declined  the  part),  and 
Ross  vras  Poithumut.  At  Drury  Luie  in 
November.  1761,  Garrick  produced  Shake- 
speare's play  with  alterations  (consisting  of 
omissions,  transpositions,  and  someiew 
words  added)  I  wnich  Genest  pronounces 
"most  judicious."  Garrick  himself  under- 
took PoithumuSt  vrith  Holland  as  lachimo. 
King  as  Cloten,  and  Miss  Bride  as  Imogen, 
The  piece  was  performed  sixteen  times. 
'CymDeline'  was  revived  at  Covent  Gardeu 
in  December,  1767,  vrith  Powell  as  Posthu- 
ynujt.  Smith  as  laehimo,  Yates  as  CU)ten,

Baddeley)  as  Iinwien.  An  adaptation  of 
'Cymbeline'  by  Henry  Brooke  iq.v.)  was 


published  in  1778.  Rerivals  of  the  play 
took  place  at  the  Haymarket  in  August, 
1782,  vrith  Bannister,  jun.,  as  Potthwnu*,

DiUon.  Charles.  Actor,  bom  at  Diss, 
Norfolk,  1819;  died  June,  1881.  Both  of 
his  parents  were  in  the  profession,  and 
his  mother  played  "leadine  business"  in 
«omitry  theatres  with  sucn  "stars"  as 
Bdmnnd  Kean  and  Macready.  Charles  Dil- 
lon is  said  to  have  begun  life  at  fifteen 
yean  of  age,  as  stage-manager  and  per- 
loimer  of  juvenile  r6let  under  John  Douglass 
in  London.  After  this  came  an  engagement 
to  play  small  parts  at  the  Surrey  under 
Davidge  (q.v.).  His  first  appearance  in  the 
metropolis  as  an  adult  was  as  Hamlet  at  the 
City  of  London  Theatre  in  1840.  A  long 
provincial  noritiate  ensued,  in  the  course  of 
which  he  was  in  management  at  Sheffield. 
In  April,  1866,  he  figured  at  Sadler's  Wells 
as  Belphegor,  and  in  the  following  Septem- 
ber he  begsii  a  lesseeship  of  the  Lyceum 
Theatre  which  lasted  till  April,  1857.  Dur- 
ing that  period  he  was  seen  successively  as 
Beiphegor,  Claude  Melnotte,  'The  Cavalier,' 
Fabian,  Othello,  WiUiamTeU,  Sangfroid,  'The 
Cagot,'  Virginiui,  Hamlet,  Don  Ccuar  de 
Bazan,  Don  Felix  in  'The  Wonder,'  and 
Richelieu ;  he  was  also  the  original  repre- 
sentative of  D*Artagnan  in  the  version  of 
*  The  Three  Musketeers '  iq.v.)  done  by  him-

self,  (Charles  Rice,  and  Auicustns  Harris,  and 
of  Lord  Rroeedale  in  Westland  Marston's  *  A 
Life's  Ransom  '  (q.v.).  He  next  appeared  at 
Drury  Lane,  but  in  1858  was  again  lessee  of 
the  Lyceum,  figuring  as  Rover  in  'Wild 
Oats,'  logo,  Macbeth,  and  Louig  XL,  and 
adding  to  his  origiiuil  assumptions  those 
of  Captain  de  la  Rouste  in  I^eigh  Hunt's 
'  Lovers'  Amazement '  (q.v.)  and  Reuben  Holt 
in  Westland  Marston's  'A  Hard  Straggle' 
.v.).  In  1860  Dillon  was  once  more  in 
ndon,  appearing  at  Drary  Lane  as  William 
TeU.  After  this  came  tours  in  the  provinces 
and  round  the  world,  followed  by  a  London 
retUrie  in  February,  1868.  at  Sadler's  Wells, 
where  he  played  Lear  and  other  Shake- 
spearean parts.  In  18^  he  was  at  Drary 
Lane,  appearing  as  Jean  Valjean  in  'The 
Man  of  Two  Lives '  (q.v.).  In  August,  1873, 
he  was  Manfred  in  a  revival  of  Lord  Byron's 
drama  at  the  Princess's  Theatre.  His  next 
Metropolitan  engagement  was  at  Drary  Lane 
in  September,  1878,  when  he  was  Leontes  in 
a  revival  of  'The  Winter's  Tale.'  He  was 
last  seen  in  London  on  December  7,  1878, 
when  he  enacted  Belphegor  for  his  "benefit." 
He  is  credited  with  the  authorship  of  a  play 
called  'Stricken  Down,'  produced  in  1870. 
"Mr.  Charles  Dillon,^'  writes  Westland 
Marston,  "was  an  actor  of  great  emotional 
gifts,  but  very  deficient  in  intellectual  ones. 
So  long  as  he  was  under  the  impulse  of 
feelings,  gay  or  grave,  he  could  act  with 
great  power,  force,  and  delicacy.  ...  In 
characters  of  manl^  pathos  that  did  not  call 
for  refinement,  Dillon  had  few  superiors. 
In  comedy  he  showed  great  animal  spirits 
and  a  keen  sense  of  fun.  .  .  .  Something, 
indeed,  of  the  provincial  actor  clung  to  him 
even  in  his  best  days.  His  happiest  efforts 
were  at  times  marred  by  his  want  of  b^ing, 
and  by  the  grandiosity  which  was  his  sub- 
stitution for  it"  ('Our  Recent  Actors'). 
See  Morley's  'Journal  of  a  Playgoer,'  the 
Era  for  June,  1881,  and  Pascoe's  'Dra- 
matic List'  (1880).— Mrs.  Charles  Dillon 
(CHara  Conquest)  died  in  Julv,  1888  She 
had  been  seen  in  London,  with  her  husband, 
as  Madeline  in  'Belphegor,'  Deedemona, 
Virginia,  etc  (1866-7).  —  Clari.  Dillox, 
daughter  of  Charles  Dillon,  died  in  Feb- 
ruary, 1898.  She  was  the  author  of  three 
plays— 'A  Fight  for  Life,'  'The  Human

applying  the  story  of  the  French  IjeafOK' 
to  tiio  Jiritisli  covenant  and  Civil  War :  a 
closer  parallel  was  now  to  he  found  in  the 
oppcsition  to  ('harles  and  James  prosecuted 
by  Siiaftesbury  and  Monmouth  and  their 
party.  Monmouth's  return  to  England  iu 
1679  in  defiance  of  the  King  bore  resemblance 
to  the  entry  of  the  Duke  oif  (iuisc  into  Paris, 
which  made  part  of  the  play.  .  .  .  The  public 
treated  the  play  as  a  poetical  manifesto, 
and  Dryden  was  exposed  to  tierce  attacks 
from  Whig  writers.  He  published  the 
piece  in  1G83,  and  replied  to  his  critics  in 
•A  Vindication  of  *'The  Duke  of  (iuise.'" 

Duke  of  Lerma  (The).  See  Great 
Favourite. 

Duke  of  Hilan  (The).  A  tr&gi- 
c^Mnedy  by  PuiLip  Massing ER  iq.vX  acted 
at  Black  Fryars,  and  first  printed  in  1623. 
"The  plot  is  derived  partly  from  Guicciar- 
dini,  partly  from  the  story  of  Mariamne  in 
Josephus.  There  is  very  little  that  is  his- 
torical in  the  play,  beyond  the  mere  fact  of 
the  war  in  Italy  between  the  Emperor  and 
the  King  of  France,  and  the  part  taken  in 
it  by  the  Duke  of  Milan."  In  November, 
1770,  Richard  Cumberland  brought  out  at 
Covent  Garden,  under  the  title  of  'The 
Duke  of  Milan/  a  compound  of  Massinger's 
play  and  of  Fenton's  *  Mariamne '  {q.v.\  with 
Henderson  as  the  Dvke  (Ludovico  Sforza), 
Aikin  as  Francisco^  and  Miss  Younge  as 
Marcelia.  An  adaptation  of  Massinger's 
tragedy  was  produced  at  Drury  J^ane  in 
March,  1810,  with  Edmund  Kcan  as  the 
Duke,  Rae  as  Franeigeo,  Holland  as  Ffg- 
cara,  Wallack  as  Tiberio,  l*owell  as  Ste- 
phano,  Oxberry  as  Graceho,  Mrs.  Hartley  as 
Marcelia,  Mrs.  Horn  as  Kuffenia,  Miss  Boyce 
as  Mariana,  and  Mrs.  Brereton  as  Isabella, 
'♦•The  Duke  of  Milan'"  says  Arthur 
Symonsj  "  despite  much  that  is  inadequate 
and  even  absurd  in  its  handling,  rises  again 
and  again  to  something  of  passion  and  of 
insight.  The  character  and  circumstances 
of  iiforza  have  been  often  compared  with 
those  of  Othello.  .  .  .  His  capacity  for  sud- 
den and  extreme  changes  of  disposition, 
and  his  violent  and  unhinged  passion,  are 
represented  with  more  dramatic  power,  with 
more  force  and  naturalness,  than  it  is  at  all 
QBiial  to  find  in  Massinger.  ...  If  S/orza 
is  after  all  but  a  second-rate  Othello,  Mar- 
eelia  is  certainly  a  very  shrewish  DeHdemonOt 
and  Francisco  a  palpably  poor  logo.'*

although  she  presides  at  the  court  of  the 
Duke  of  Pavia,  is  nevertheless  chaste,  and 
in  the  end  espouses  Bentiwlio,  the  Dvke

in  the  title  part ;  played  at  the  I'beatre 
Royal,  Manchester,  in  August,  1887,  with 
J.  Dewhurst  as  Lagardtre.  Miss  AdaRehan 
has  appeared  in  America  as  Blanche.  "  The 
play,''  wrote  Henry  Morley,  *•  is  all  bright 
picturesque  romance.  It  even  rivals  the 
'  Colleen  llawn '  and  '  Peep  o'  Day '  with  a 
set '  sensation '  scene  an<l  acrobatic  feat  for 
the  hero,  who  hauls  himself  up  a  rope,

*<  Dtunb-showB.  Inexplicable/' 
This  phrase,  used  by  UamUt  in  act  iii. 
sc.  2,  bas  reference  to  the  pantomimic 
action  in  which  certain  old-time  dramas 
were  introduced.  "  lief  ore  each  act  of  the 
play  to  bo  performed,  the  dramatis  persona 
came  forward,  and  bv  meana  of  eloquent 
gestures,  postures,  and  glances,  typified  the 
transactions  in  which  they  were  about  to 
engage"  (Dutton  Cook).    See  Buckhurst's 

*  Gorboduc,'  in  which  •*  dumb-shows  "  were 
freely  used.  A  "dumb-show,"  in  the  text 
of  *  Hamlet'  (act  iii.  sc.  2),  precedes  the 
performance  of  *The  Murder  of  Conzago;' 
this,  apparently,  was  intended  to  be  "in- 
explicaole,"  because,  after  it  is  over,  Ophdia 
says  to  Hamlet,  "what  means  this,  my 
lord  ?  "  **  Belike,"  she  innocently  continues, 
"this  show  imports  the  argument  of  the

can's successes  in  "  breeches'  parts."  such 
as  Captain  Mackeath ;  she  "wears  the 
breeches,"  he  says,  "much  better  than 
becomes  her."  William Robson  says :  "  She 
was  not  the  tragic  muse,  she  was  not  the 
comic  muse,  but  she  was  worthy  to  be  the 
chosen  handmaid  of  either,  or  both.  With 
a  full,  handsome  person,  and  a  rich,  good, 
and  sweet  voice,  she  had  just  talent  enough 
to  make  loveable  women  very  loveable  in- 
deed. Her  attention  was  priucipally  directed

Dundreary,  Lord,  figured  first  in  Tom 
Taylor's  'Our  American  Cousin'  {q.v.). 
The  part  was  originally  a  very  small  one, 
but  Sothem,  its  first  exponent,  was

EdflrinfiT,  Mrs.    Woman  to  Lndy  Eavy 
in  CiBBEiTs  *  Careless  Husband'  (g.v.)> 

Edinburflrh.  The  first  reference  in  local 
records  to  dramatic  matters  in  the  capital 
of  Scotland  has  for  date  the  year  1654,  when 
the  municipal  authorities  ordered  a  certain 
payment  to  be  made  in  connection  with  a 
play  performed  within  their  jurisdiction. 
The  **  playing  place  "  appears  to  have  been 
the  Greenside,  and  was  prepared  at  a  cost 
of  a  hundred  marks.  The  first  play  of  which 
documentary  mention  is  made  in  connection 
with  Edinburgh  is  the  *  Three  Estates '  of  Sir 
David  Lindsay  (q.v.).  The  Greenside  was  used, 
apparently,  for  theatrical  purposes  at  least 
as  late  as  1538.  In  1&93  Edinburgh  received 
a  visit  from  a  company  of  English  actors, 
of  whose  penonnel  nothing  is  known.  They 
were  followed  in  1599  by  a  troupe,  also  from 
England,  of  whom  Shakespeare  may  have 
been  one,  seeing  that  the  company  was  that 
of  Lawrence  Fletcher,  with  which  the  poet 
is  known  to  have  been  associated.  Fletcher 
and  his  colleagues,  it  would  seem,  acted 
first  before  the  Court,  and  then  received 
royal  permission  to  perform  in  public,  much 
to  the  displeasure  of  the  local  clergv*  In  1603 
King  James  removed  his  court  to  Whitehall, 
and  from  that  date  onwards,  for  many  a 
year,  players  in  the  Scots'  capital  had  no 
direct  royal  patronage.  **  Not  till  we  arrive 
at  the  year  1663  is  there,"  says  J.  C.  Dibdin, 
*'  any  further  record  of  the  drama  "  in  Edin« 
burgh.  "Jan  Penthus"  was  then  allowed 
to  build  a  public  sta^e  '*  down  about  Black* 
friar  Wyna  head."  In  1668  came  a  represen* 
tation  of  Sydserfs  comedy,  'Tarugo's  Wiles,* 
in  the  tennis  court  at  ilolyrood.  In  1669 
and  1670  the  town  council  are  found  licensing 
special  performances,  and  in  1672  the  locsS 
records  make  mention  of  a  representation 
of  'Macbeth.'  In  1677  and  1687  further 
special  licenses  are  issued,  and  in  1689  we 
ilnd  the  city  losing  the  services  of  Sydserf, 
who  had  been  managing  a  **  theatre  "  in  the 
Canongate.  The  next  notable  entrepreneur 
was  Anthony  Aston  (q.v.),  whose  career  aa 
manager  extended  certainly  from  1725  to 
1723.  Uis  locale  was  the  Skinner's  Hall, 
and  his  r^.nime  was  chequered,  not  to  say 
stormy.  lie  contended  manfully,  and  not 
unsuccessfully  at  times,  against  official 
prejudice,  but  had  to  succumb  at  last. 
From  1728  to  1735  performances  were  given 
in  the  Taylors'  Hall,  Canongate,  by  "*  the 
Edinburgh  company  of  plavera,"  who,  with 
other  things,  produced  *  The  Tempest '  for 
the  first  time  in  the  city.  In  September, 
1736,  it  was  announced  that "  the  new  theatre 
in  Camither's  Close  will  be  opened  the 
first  of  November."  "This  was  the  first 
regular  theatrical  establishment  ever  erected 
in  Scotland,  and  was  brought  into  existence 
by  the  enterprise  of  the  poet,  Allan  Ramsay. 
What  fortune  it  may  have  had,  during  its 
brief  existence  of  little  more  than  six 
month.s,  is  unknown.  That  it  was  shut  np 
immediately  on  the  passing  of  the  New  Act, 
10  George  II.  cap.  28,  June  24,  1737,  ia 


certahi.  Ramsay  must  have  lost  heavily  by 
his  speculation  "  (J.  C.  Dibdin).  Management 
at  the  Taylors'  Hall  was  by-and-by  under- 
taken by  one  Thomas  Este,  who  appears  to 
have  flourished,  more  or  less,  between  1741 
and  1745,  when  he  died.  He  had  hit  upon  the 
idea  of  calling  the  place  a  concert  hall,  and 
charging  the  public  for  admission  to  a 
musical  entertainment,  alter  which  a  play 
was  given  "gratis."  This  device  kept  the 
drama  alive  in  Edinburgh  till  1767,  when  a 
patent  was  first  granted  to  a  local  playhouse. 
Meanwhile,  1747  was  signalized  by  a  large 
secession  from  the  Taviors'  Hall,  many  of 
the  players  tiUcing  service  at  a  new  ''concert 
hall"  which  had  been  erected  in  the  Canon- 
gate. Of  this  establishment,  John  Lee  {q.v. ), 
the  actor,  from  Drury  Lane,  became  the 
director  in  1752.  He  was  not,  however,  well 
treated  by  his  principal  patrons  and  sup- 
porters, who  engsjged  a  Mr.  Callender  to 
replace  him  as  business  manager,  the  entire 
direction  of  the  stage  being  vested  in  West 
Digges  (^.».),  who,  before  long,  became 
manager-in-chief.  This  was  in  1756,  a  year 
notable  for  the  production  of  Home's 
*  Douglas  '  (q.v.).  Digges  reigned  for  a 
year  or  two,  giving  way  eventually  to  a 
combination  of  CaDender  with  Bates  (or 
Beat)  of  Newcastle.  Under  the  rule  of  these 
gentlemen  the  ."concert  hall"  was  the  scene 
of  a  riot,  which  created  a  strong  prejudice 
against  an  unlicensed  playhouse  and  a  de- 
mand for  a  licensed  one.  A  patent  was  ac- 
cordingly applied  for  and  granted,  the  first 
holder  of  it  oeing  David  Boss  iq.v.\  from 
Covent  Garden,  who  was  enabled  to  erect 
a  new  building  in  Shakespeare  Square  on 
the  site  of  the  present  General  Post  Office. 
This  "  Theatre  Royal "  was  opened  on  De- 
cember 9. 1769,  with  the  patentee  as  "  leadine 
man "  and  Mrs.  Baker  as  "  leading  lady.^ 
In  the  following  year  Boss  leasetl  the  the- 
atre to  Samuel  Foote  (g.v.).  who^n  his  first 
season,  brought  the  whole  of  the  Baymarket 
company  to  Edinburgh.  He  was  glad,  how- 
ever, in  1771  to  resign  the  sceptre  to  West 
Digges,  who  by-and-by  took  John  Bland 
into  psitnership,  and  introduced  Yates,  Mrs. 
Yates,  Shuter,  Barry,  and  Mrs.  Barry  to 
local  audiences.  His  management  was  no^ 
successful  on  the  whole,  and  in  1777  he  re- 
tired from  it,  followed  in  1779  by  Bland.  A 
Mr.  Corri,  and  afterwards,  Tate  Wilkinson, 
had  the  theatre  for  a  season  or  two.  and 
then  in  1781  Ross  resumed  control,  with  the 
result  that  he  was  soon  bankrupt.  It  was 
at  this  Juncture  that  John  Kemble  first  ap- 
peared m  Edinburgh.  The  next  lessee  was 
John  Jackson  (g.v.)--«ctor,  dramatist,  and 
author  of  a  '  History  of  the  Scottish  Stage.' 
Starting  in  November,  1781,  be  engaged  Mrs. 
Bulkeley  as  "  leading  lady,"  and  during  the 
next  few  years  presented  Mrs.  Baddeley, 
Mrs.  Siddons,  Henderson.  Mrs.  Jordan,  and 
others  to  the  Scottish  public.  In  September, 
1788,  the  patent  expired  and  had  to  be  re- 
newed, the  Dukeof  llarailtonand  Mr.  Henry 
Dundas  becoming  trustees  for  the  public. 
In  1791  Jackson's  reign  ended,  and  the  the- 
atre passed  for  a  season  into  the  han<U 
of  Stephen  Kemble  iq.v.),  who,  succeeded

trained  to  be  an  instrumentalist,  and 
began  life  in  the  orchestra  of  the  Brighton 
Theatre,  where  he  made  his  d^but  as  an 
actor  as  Old  Crazy  in  *  Peeping  Tom '  (q.vX 
After  this  came  country  engagements  with

ache' and  Lovegold  in  'The  Miser.'  These

*The  Iron  Chest,'  Danitl  Dowlas  in  'The 
Heir  at  Law,'  and  so  forth.  At  the  Hay-

performer  of  Dan  in  'John  Bull,'  Sam  in

"  In  his  line  of  rustic  characters  ho  is  a 
perfect  actor.  His  Hodge  is  an  absolute 
reality,  and  his  Lockit  is  as  sullen,  gloomy, 
and  impenetrable  as  the  prison  walls  of 
which  he  is  the  keeper.  His  Robert  Tyke 
is  the  sublime  of  tragedy  in  low  life" 
r Criticisms  and  Dramatic  Essays').  W. 
Robson  says:  "He  understood  and  could 
play  Shakespeare.  His  Caliban  was  by  far 
the  best  that  has  been  seen  since  Charles 
Bannister;  his  Sir  Toby  Belch,  his  Grave- 
digger^  his  Dogberry,  1  have  never  seen 
equalled ;  but  his  Bamardine  was  the  most 
astonishing.  ...  He  was  great  in  the  ner- 
vous, strong  parts  of  our  old  comedies,  and 
was  TeskiljDandif  DinmorU  himself"  ('The 
Old  Playgoer').  See,  also,  'The  Thespian  Dic-

Emperor  of  the  East  (The).  A 
tragi-comedy  by  Philip  Massinoer,  acted

comes  in  time  to  suspect  Eudocia  of  an 
intrigue  with  Paulinu^,  but  is  duly  con- 
vinced of  her  innocence.  In  Dr.  A.  W. 
Ward's  opinion,  "  Massinger  has  not  made 
any  very  successful  use  of  a  strange  and,  in 
its  way,  fascinating  story,  or  invested  with 
any  marked  interest  the  character  of  the 
'Empress  Eudocia'"  ('English  Dramatic 
Literature ').  See  Gibbon's  'Rome,'  chapter 
22 ;  also,  Theodosius.

ville  ^which  was  itself  originally  trans- 
lated from  the  Italian),  and  acted  at  Dorset 
Garden  in  1687.  with  Underbill  as  Dr. 
BcUiardn,  Mountfort  as  Jjon  Charfnante^ 
Powell,  jun.,  as  Dmi  Cintkio,  Mrs.  Mountfort 
as  BfUemante  (niece  of  Baliardo)^  Mrs. 
Cooke  as  Klaria  (daughter  of  Baliardo\ 
Jevon  as  Harlequin^  Leigh  as  Searamoueh, 


and  Mrs.  Cory  as  Mopiophil.  "  The  Doctor 
is  so  credulous  as  to  oelieve  that  there  is  a 
world  in  the  moon.  Charmante  helps  to 
impress  him  in  his  belief.  The  Doctor  is  at 
last  persuaded  that  the  Emperor  of  the 
Moon  and  the  Prince  of  Thunderland  are 
in  love  with  Elaria  and  Bellatnente.  Cinthio 
and  Charmante  descend  in  a  chariot  as  the 
Emperor  and  Prince.  They  marry  Elaria 
and  Bellamente"  (Genest).  **  Harlequin 
and  Scaramouch  play  off  innumerable  tncks 
and  antics.  They  are  the  servants  respec- 
tively of  Don  Cinthio  and  Dr.  Baliardo,  the 
lover  and  the  pantaloon  of  the  plot,  and  are 
both  in  love  with  Mopsophil,  the  duenna  of

afterwards  acted  at  the  Duke's  Theatre  (in 
1673),  with  Mrs.  Betterton  as  the  Empress 
(Laula),  Betterton  as  her  paramour  (Cn ma/- 
haz),  Smith  as  Muley  Hainet^  Mrs.  Mary  Lee 
as  Mariamne^  etc.  "The  snccejis  of  this 
tragedy  excited  the  envy  of  Settle's  con- 
temporaries. It  is  never  dull,  and  tlie  plot 
is  well  managed"  (Genest).  The  play  is 
said  to  have  been  the  first  ever  printed 
with  pictorial  illustrations  (1673).  It  was 
burlesqued  in  '  The  Empress  of  Morocco,'  a 
farce  written  by  Thomas  Dufpet,  and  acted

Exeter.  The  theatrical  history  of  this 
city  appears  to  have  begun  in  1749,  when  a 
playhouse  of  some  sort  was  erected  in 
Waterbeer  Street.  In  connection  with  the 
career  of  this  building  the  names  of  William 
Dowton  (q.v.)  and  of  J.  Foote  (the  father  of 
Maria  Foote,  q.o.)  are  mentioned  ;  but  little 
else  is  recorde<l  of  it.  In  October.  1787,  a 
new  theatre  was  opened  in  Be<lfora  (Tircus, 
under  the  management  of  Hughes  and  Tre- 
man.  Of  its  first  season  the  "stars"  were 
Stephen  Kemble  and  his  wife ;  in  1789-90 
it  was  dignified  by  a  visit  from  Mrs.  Siddons. 
then  in  the  heyday  of  her  powers.  In  1794 
Hughes  gave  way  to  a  Mr.  Barrett,  but  re- 


turned to  management  in  1796.  In  1800 
he  again  retire<I,  this  time  in  favour  of  a 
Mr.  Sandford,  but  before  long  once  more 
resumed  his  old  position.  Master  Betty 
played  an  engagement  in  1806,  and  in  1806 
Charles  Eemole  and  his  wife  were  seen. 
In  1811  Edmund  Eean.  then  only  twenty- 
three,  made  so  favourable  impression  upon 
the  Exeter  public  that  he  was  promptly 
engaged  for  three  years,  during  which  he 
undertook  a  long  series  of  leading  roUs. 
Leaving  Exeter  in  1814,  Kean  came  back  to 
it  in  1816  as  a  '« star."  He  was  foUowed,  in 
the  course  of  the  next  few  years,  by  Maria 
Foote  and  Miss  O'Neil.  Towards  the  end 
of  1819  the  theatre  was  reconstructed  and 
redecorated,  only  to  fall  a  victim  to  fire  in 
the  foU  owing  March.  It  was  replaced  by  a 
new  building  in  January,  1821.  In  June, 
1823,  Huches  retired  from  the  direction, 
taking  a  farewell  benefit,  at  which  Dowton 
appeared.  The  year  1824  was  made  memor- 
able by  Macready's  first  profeasional  visit  to 
the  city.  See  W.  Cotton's  'Story  of  the 
Drama  in  Exeter. 

Exile  (The).  (1)  A  '* melodramatic 
opera "  in  three  acts,  words  bv  Frederick

Mrs.  H.  Johnston  as  AUxina,  Pope  as  Count 
Ulriek,  Young  as  Daran,  ana  Munden, 
Liston,  Mrs.  Gibbs,  etc.,  in  other  roles. 
This  piece  was  founded  on  *  Elizabeth,'  a 
novel  oy  Mdme.  Cottin.  It  has  for  heroine 
AlexincL,  the  daughter  of  Count  Ulriek^  who 
has  been  banished  for  State  reasons  to 
Siberia.  Alexina,  Journeying  to  Moscow 
to  beg  for  the  Counts  pardon,  is  protected 
on  the  way  by  an  Indian,  calling  himself 
Daran.  She  secures  the  pardon,  but,  owing 
to  circumstances,  is  forced  into  a  marriage 
with  Varan,  who,  however,  happily  proves 
to  be  her  lover,  JUymanof,  in  disguise.  The 
play  has  been  performed  of  late  years  nnder

FAI.STAFF 


486 


FALSTAFP 


FalstafT,  Sir  Jolin,  figures  in  the  first 
and  second  parts  of  Shakespeare's  '  Henry 
IV/  (g,i»).,  in  •  The  Merry  Wives  of  Windsor' 
(q.vX  in  Kenbick's  *Falstaffs  Wedding' 
(q.v.).  and  in  operas  by  Balfe,  Verdi,  and 
Nicofai  [see  Faistaff].  It  seems  certain  that 
in  the  two  parts  of  *  Ilenrr  IV.,'  as  originally 
played,  he  was  caUed  "  Oldcastle,"  after  one 
of  the  characters  in  '  The  Famous  Victories 
of  Henry  V.'  (qvX  on  which  Shakespeare 
based  his  '1  and  2  Henry  IV.'  and   his 

*  Henry  V.'  In  the  text  of  •  1  Henry  IV.,' 
as  we  nave  it  (act  i.  sc.  2),  we  find  Prince 
Hal  addressing  the  fat  knight  as  **my  old 
lad  of  the  castle"— an  obvious  play  upon 
*'  Oldcastle."  Bo  we  records  that,  members 
of  the  family  of  the  real  Sir  John  Oldcastle 
being  alive  at  the  time  of  the  production  of 

*  Henry  IV.,'  Queen  Elizabeth  ordered  the 
poet  to  give  his  knight  another  name— an 
order  which  seems  to  have  been  carried 
out,  though  one  or  two  hints  of  the  original 
cognomen  were  accidentally  permitted  to 
remain.  That  Shakespeare  was  genuinely 
desirous  not  to  give  pain  to  the  Oldcastles 
is  shown  in  the  epilogue  to  *2  Henry  IV.,' 
in  which  it  is  sidd  of  Faistaff  that  *'  Old- 
castle died  a  martyr,  and  this  is  not  the 
man."  Unhappily,  one  gathers  that,  wliat- 
ever  corrections  may  have  been  made  in 
the  official  **  scrip "  of  the  play,  or  in  the 
play  as  printed,  some  at  least  who  produced 
it  retained  "Oldcastle"  as  the  knijght's 
name;   the   following  passage  in    Field's 

*  Amends  for  I^adies^  (1618)  cannot  other- 
wise be  accounted  f  or— 

"  Did  Tou  n«T«r  m* 
The  play  where  th«  (at  kiiight.  hiffht  Oldcaitl*. 
l>id  Ull  yuu  trul/  what  this  honour  wmT  " — 

*n  obvious  allusion  to  '  1  Henry  IV.,'  act  v. 
sc.  1.  As  it  happened,  in  rechristening 
his  creation  "Faistaff"  Shakespeare  was 
held  to  bo  doing  as  much  injury  to  the 
memory  of  Sir  John  Fastolf.  the  soldier, 
AS  he  had  done  to  that  of  »ir  John  Old- 
castle, the  Lollard.  Fastolf,  it  will  be  re- 
niembered.  is  one  of  the  personce  in  '1 
Henry  VL  (q^.v.),  where  he  is  portrayed  as 
**  a  contemptible  craven."  Oldcastle,  it  may 
be  noted,  is  the  hero  of  a  play  called  '  Sir 
John  Oldcastle '  (q.v.),  in  which  he  is  vindi- 
cated from  the  aspersions  supposed  to  be 
cast  upon  him  by  Shakespeare.  Maurice 
Morgann,  writing  '  On  the  Drunatic  Cha- 
racter of  Sir  John  Faistaff '  (1777)  as  seen 
in  *1  and  2  Henry  IV.,'  savs:  "He  is  a 
man  at  once  young  and  old.  enterprising 
and  fat,  a  dupe  and  a  vrit,  harmless  and 
wicke'l,  weak  in  principle  and  resolute  by 
constitution,  cowardly  in  appearance  and 
brave  in  reality,  a  knave  without  malice,  a 
liar  without  deceit,  and  a  knight,  a  gentle* 
man,  and  a  soldier  without  either  dignity, 
decency,  or  honour."  "Sir  John,"  writes 
Professor  Dowden, "  is  by  no  means  a  purely 
comic  character.  Were  he  no  more  than 
this,  the  stem  words  of  Henry  to  his  ohl 
companion  would  be  unendurable.  The 
central  principle  of  Falstaff's  method  *>f 
livin;:  is  that  the  ftcts  and  laws  of  tlic 
world  may  be  evaded  or  set  at  defiance,  if 
only  the  resources  of  inexhaustible  wit  be 


called  upon  to  supply  by  brilliant  ingenuity 
whatever  deficiencies  may  be  found  in 
character  and  conduct "  (*  >Shakespeare,  his 
Mind  and  Art ').  The  epilogue  to  *  2  Henry 
IV.'  promises  that  "our  author  will  con- 
tinue the  story  with  Sir  John  in  it ; "  but, 
says  Dr.  Dowden,  "our  humble  author 
decided  that  the  public  was  not  to  be  in- 
dulged in  laughter  for  laughter's  sake  at 
the  expense  of  his  play.  The  tone  of  the 
entire  play  of  *  Henry  V.'  would  have  been 
altered  if  Falst^  had  been  allowed  to  ap- 
pear in  it."  Shakespeare  does,  however, 
announce  in  *  Henry  V.'  the  death  of  PaUtaf 
(act  ii.  sc.  8).  "  Pathetically,  the  fat  knight 
disappears,  and  d  isappears  for  ever."  * '  'The 
FaUtafot  the  *  Merry  Wives,' "  says  Hartley 
Coleridge, "  is  not  the  Faistaff  of  •  Henry  IV.' 
It  is  a  Dig-bellied  impostor,  assuming  his 
name  and  ■tylOi  or  at  l)est  it  is  Falstaf  in 
dotace. . . .  Shakespeare  knew  that  Fautaff 
could  not  be  in  love,  and  has  mixed  but  a 
little,  a  very  little,  pruritus  with  his  fortune- 
hunting  courtship"  ('Essays  and  Margi- 
nalia'). See  HalliwellPhillips' '  Character 
of  Sir  John  Faistaff'  (1841)  and  Gairdner's 
*  Historical  Element  in  Shakspere's  Faistaff  * 
{Fortnightly  Review^  March,  1873).  See,  also, 
the  essay  (in  Birrell's  *  Obiter  Dicta,'  first 
series)  in  which  George  Radford  seeks  to 
compile,  from  Shakespeare's  pages,  a  sort  of 
biography  of  Faistaff.  Among  the  most 
notable  interpreters  of  the  knight  were  Bet- 
terton,  Quin,  Shuter,  Henderson,  Dowton, 
and  Stephen  Kemble.  "Quin,"  says  Tate 
Wilkinson,  "  with  a  bottle  of  claret  and  a 
full  house,  the  instant  he  was  on  the  stage 
was  Sir  John  FaUtaff  himself."  "  In  the 
frolicsome,  fl^y,  ana  humorous  situations 
of  FaUtaff t  Henderson,"  writes  Davies,  "  is 
superior  to  every  one."  Dowton,  in  Planch^'s 
opinion,  was  the  best  representative  of  the 
character  in  his  day.  "His  eye  had  the 
right  roguish  twinkle;  his  laugh,  the  fat, 
sdf -satisfied  chnckle ;  his  large  protruding 
underlip,  the  true  character  of  sensuality.** 
Of  Stephen  Kemble  the  same  writer  says  : 
"His  obesity  was  9o  great  that  he  played  AW- 
«tojf  without  stuffing ; .  . .  but  the  effect  was 


pertormance,  according  to  Henry  Howe 
{q.vX  was  "a  great  failtire,  for,  though  the 
most  unctuous  of  female  comedians,  she 
seemed  like  a  weakly  youth  playing  the 
iNBkrt."  Mrs.  Webb  also  attempted  the  rCie. 
Both  Mark  Lemon  {q.v.)  and  Arthur  Sketch- 
ley  {q.v.)  performed  the  character  in  public.

(o.f.)t  while  in  Jane,  1855,  at  the  name 
theatre,  she  was  the  original  Margaret 
in  Saunders's  *  Lore's  Martyrdom '  (q.v.), 
*'  This,"  says  her  hosband  and  biographer, 
"  was  the  last  of  the  many  characters  which, 
according  to  a  current  plirase,  she  created.'^ 
From  this  time  onwards,  till  1871— when, 
after  a  farewell  engagement  at  Manchester, 
she  abstained  from  the  regular  practice  of 
her  profession— Miss  Fanclt  confined  herself 
to  performances,  in  London  and  the  countfv, 
of  the  most  popolar  characters  in  her  wide 
repertory.  Sne  acted  at  Her  Majesty's  and 
the  Lyceum  in  1858,  and  at  Drury  Lane  in 
1864  and  1866.  Between  1873  and  1870  she 
made  seyeral  single  ai>pearance8  for  the 
benefit  of  indiyidnals  or  institutions.  Thus 
in  the  former  year  she  played  Rotalind  at 
the  Haymarket :  in  1874.  Lady  TeazU  at 
Drury  Lane,  and  Beatrice  at  the  Haymarket ; 
in  1875,  Rotalind  at  Drury  Lane,  and 
lolanthe  ;  in  1876,  lolanthe  at  the  Lyceum : 
in  1879,£«a<neein  the  Shakespeare  Memorial 
Theatre,  Stratford-on-Ayon  (of  which  she 
had  laid  the  foundation-stone  in  1877),  and, 
later  in  the  same  year,  RMalind  at  Man- 
chester. This  last  was  her  final  appearance 
on  the  stage.  For  biog^phy  and  criticism, 
see  Miss  Faucit's  volume '  On  Some  of  Shake- 
speare's  Female  Characters  *  (1885),  in  which 
there  is  much  autobiographical  matter; 
•  Helena  Faucit  (Lady  Martin),'  by  Sir  Theo- 
dore Martin  (1900);  and  'Actors  and  Ac- 
tresses of  Great  Britain  and  America '  (1886). 
For  criticism,  see  Sir  Archibald  Alison  s 
'Essays'  (1S50),  Henry  Morley's  'Journal 
of  a  London  Playgoer'  (1866),  Sir  Arthur 
Helps's  'Realmah^(1868),  and  Blackwood:* 
Magazine  for  December,  1885  (an  article  by 
Miss  M.  Stokes).  Sir  Archibald  Alison 
Tvroteof  Miss  Faucit:  '*She  is  a  combina- 
tion of  Mrs.  Siddonsand  Miss  O'Neill ;  with 
the  mi^estic  air  and  lofty  thoughts  of  the 
former,  and  as  great  paUietic  power,  not 
less  winning  grace,  but  far  greater  variety 
than  the  latter.  Flexibility  of  power  is  her 
great  characteristic,  versatility  her  dis- 
tinguishing feature.  Like  Garrick,  she 
excels  eaually  in  tragedy  or  elegant  comedv : 
it  is  hard  to  say  whether  hwRoaalind  is  the 
more  charming  or  her  Lady  Teazle  the  more 
fascinating,  her  Belvidera  the  more  moving 
or  her  Juliet  the  more  heart-rending.  Dark 
raven  locks,  a  fine  figure,  and  singularly 
expressive  countenance,  bestow  on  ner  aQ 
the  advantages  which,  in  addition  to  the 
highest  mental  gifts,  beauty  never  ceases 
to  confer  on  woman ;  and  a  dispoNsition 
marked  by  deep  feeling,  alternately  lively 
and  serious,  sportive  and  mournful,  playful 
and  contemplative,  gives  her  that  command 
of  the  expression  of  different  emotions  and 
that  versatility  of  power  which  constitute 
her  great  and  unequalled  charm."  In  1843 
Browning  wrote  in  Miss  I^ucit's  album  a 
poem  wmch  concluded  thus — 

"  *  Oenlns'  U  a  common  story  I

Faucit,  John  SaviUe.  Actor,  the- 
atrical manager,  and  dramatic  writer,  died 
1857 :  after  a  good  deal  of  experience  in  the 
irovinces  as  an  actor,  went  with  his  wife 
q.v.)  in  1818  to  0>vent  Garden,  where  he 
"  periormed  low-comedy  characters  of  little 
importance."  He  afterwards  became  man- 
ager of  the  Margate,  Gravesend,  and  Green- 
wich Theatres.  It  waa  written  of  him  in 
1825 :  *'  He  is  a  man  about  the  size  of  Kean, 
with  an  expressive  countenance.  He  is 
allowed  to  be  a  Terv  excellent  serio-panto- 
mime  actor,  and  has  very  considerable 
talent  as  a  low  comedian  "  (Oxberry's  '  Dra- 
matic Biography ').  Later  he  was  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Adelpni  company  under  Yates, 
and,  still  later,  manager  of  the  Nottingham 
Theatre.  He  was  the  author  of  the  follow- 
ing plays— 'Fair  Rosamond'  (1821),  'New- 
ton Foster'  (1836).  *  Wapping  Old  Stairs' 
(1837),  *  Aldgate  l>ump'  (184U  *  The  Bump 
of  Benevolence '  a841).  *The  Last  Shilling' 
(1844).  His  son,  Edmund  Satille  Faucit 
(bom  1811,  died  1857),  played  "lead"  at 
the  Surrey,  Victoria,  and  City  of  London 
Theatres  between  1837  and  1852.  See

Fanolt)  Mrs.  John  Saville  [Harriett 
Diddear].  Actress,  bom  1789,  died  1857 ;  made 
her  professional  dUbut  at  Dover  in  1804,  and 
in  1805  was  married  to  John  Saville  Faucit 
.v.).  With  him  she  acted  successively  at 
ichmond,  on  the  Norwich  circuit,  and 
at  Newcastle,  making  her  first  appearance 
in  London  at  Oovent  Garden  on  October  7, 
1813,  as  Detdemona,  which  was  followed  by 
her  Juliet^  her  Volumnia^  her  Q^ieen  in 
*  Richard  III.,'  and  so  forth.  Among  her 
other  roUi  were  Cleopatra^  Lady  Constance^ 
Hermione,  Jiobella  C  ¥a,tA\  Marriage  Of  •^'- 
fridera  ('Venice  Preserved'),  Lady  Teazle, 
the  Wtdow  Cheerly.  etc.  "For  tragic 
assumptions  generally,"  wrote  a  contem- 
porary critic,  "we  do  not  think  her  emi- 
nently qualified ;  she  is  better  calculated 
to  represent  the  heroines  of  melodrama  or 
the  sentimentalists  of  comedy  "  (Oxberry's 
'Dramatic  Biography,'  1825).  Sne  retired 
from  the  stage  in  1824.  **She  was,"  says 
Sir  Theodore  Martin,  ''tall  and  sinsularly 
handsome,  and  her  fine  figure  and  distinc- 
tion of  manner  appear  u>  have  given  a 
special  charm  to  her  varied  accomplish- 
ments as  an  actress."  On  the  death  of  her 
husband,  in  1857,  she  married  William

Fool  (The).  A  farce  by  Captain  Top-

February,  1785. 

Fool  (The)i  in  ••  King  I..ear,'  is,  in  Pro- 
fessor Brandes'  opinion,  ^'  the  best  of  Shake- 
speare's  Fools,  mordantly  witty,  marvellously 
ingenious.  He  in  the  protest  of  sound 
common-sense  against  the  foolislmess  of 
which  Lear  has  been  guilty,  but  a  protest 
tliat  is  pure  hnmour ;  he  never  complains, 
least  of  all  on  his  own  account.  Yet  all  his 
foolery  produces  a  tragic  efifect.  And  the 
words  spoken  by  one  of  the  knights,  *  Since 
my  young  lady's  going  into  France,  sir,  the 
fool  iMth  much  pined  away,'  atone  for  all 
his  sharp  speeches  to  Lear.  Amongst  Shake- 
speare's other  master-strokes  in  this  play 
must  be  reckoned  that  of  exalting  the  tra- 
ditional clown,  the  bufifoon,  into  so  high  a 
sphere  that  he  becomes  a  tragic  element  of 
tne  first  order.  In  no  other  play  of  Shake- 
speare's has  the  Fool  so  many  proverbial 
words    of    wisdom."     See    Clowns,  and

In  Boswoira  •  Johnson  *  we  read  :  ••  Botwell : 
*  Foote  has  a  great  deal  of  humour.'    John- 
son: 'Yea,  sir.'   Boncell :  *  Ue  has  a  singular 
talent  for  exhibiting  character.'   Johnson: 
'  Sir,  it  is  not  a  talent,  it  is  a  vice ;  it  is  what 
others  abstain  from.  It  is  not  comedy,  which 
exhibits  the  character  of  a  species ;  it  is 
farce.which  exhibits  indiriduals.' "  T.  Davies 
(*  Life  of  Garrick ')  is  severe  upon  Foote's 
performances  in  legitimate  comedy,  assert- 
ing that  he  "  was  a  most  de»picable  player 
in  almost  all  parts  but  those  which  he  wrote 
for  himself."    Colman,  in  his  '  Random  Re- 
cords/ says  of  Foote  that  "  The  paradoxical 
celebrity  he  maintained  upon  the  stage  was 
Tery  singular;  his  satirical  sketches  were 
scarcely  dramas,  and  he  could  not  be  called 
a  good  legitimate  performer.    Yet  there  is 
no  Shakespeare  or  Roscius  upon  record  who, 
like  Foote.  supported  a  theatre  for  a  series 
of   years  by  nis  own  acting,  in  his  own 
writings,  and  for  ten  years  of  the  time  upon 
a  trood^n  Irg  ! "    Genest  ('  English  Stage ') 
holds  tliat  "as  a  dramatic  writer  Foote 
stands  very  hif^h.    His  comedies  have  little 
or  no  plot,  which  is  a  great  deficiency ;  but 
his  dialogue  is  superior  to  that  of  most 
other  authors ;  it  abounds  with  wit,  humour, 
and  satire.  ...  He  boldly  attacked  vice  in 
the  higher  orders  of  life,  and  his  plays  con- 
tain a  history  nf  the  follies,  customs,  and 
corruptions  of  the  age  in  which  he  lived.  .  . . 
Though  he  sometimes  turned  an  inoffensive 
person  into  ridicule,  yet  he  seldom  or  never 
made  a  severe  attack  on  any  character  that 
either  met  with  public  respect  or  deserved 
to  Ao  so."    See  the  'Memoirs  of  Samuel 
Foote,'  by  WUliam  Cooke  (1808).  Tate  WU-

OABRICK 


the  best  actor  that  the  English  8ta«e  had 
ever  produced.  Pope  declared  that  he  had 
no  equal  and  would  have  no  rival.  Gray, 
on  the  other  hand,  while  acknowledging 
his  popularity,  said  ne  was  "  of  the  opposi- 
tion," and  Horace  Walpole  asserted  that 
he  saw  "nothing  wonderful"  in  Garrick's 
performances.  Quin,  speaking  for  "the 
profession,"  observed  that  if  Garrick's 
manner  of  acting  was  right,  theirs  was 
wrong.  Garrick's  first  appearance  at  Dmry 
Lane — ^the  theatre  with  which  he  was 
destined  to  be  closely  associated  for  nearly 
twenty  consecutive  years — was  made  before 
he  left  Goodman's  fields,  namely,  on  May 
11,  1742,  when  he  represented  Chamont  at 
a  benefit  performance.  Later  in  the  month 
he  was  seen  there  in  throe  of  his  most 
notable  impersonations.  In  June  he  went 
to  the  Smock  Alley  Theatre,  Dublin,  where 
he  appeared  for  the  first  time  as  UamUt 
and  as  Captain  Plume  in  '  The  Recruiting 
Officer.'  We  read  that  the  triumph  he  re* 
ceived  "  exceeded  all  imagination  "  (Hitch- 
cock). In  October  he  began  an  engagement 
at  Drury  Lane  under  the  management  of 
Fleetwood.  Ihiring  this  season  (1742-3)  he 
played  Hastings^  Abel  Dptgger  in  'The 
Alchemist,'  and  Archer  in  'The  Beaux' 
Stratagem,'  besides  "  creating  "  the  r6U  of 
MUlammir  in  Fielding's  'Wedding  Day.' 
In  January,  1744,  he  was  seen  for  the  first 
time  as  Juacbeth  in  a  conscientious  revival 
of  Shakespeare's  tragedv.  This  was  fol- 
lowed by  Lord  Towmey  in  'The  Provoked 
Husband*  and  Biron  m  'The  Fatal  Mar- 
riage,' with  two  original  parts — Regulus  in 
Havard's  play  and  Zaphna  in  '  Mahomet.' 
Next  season  (1744-5)  he  added  to  his  reper- 
tory Sir  John  Brute  in '  The  Provoked  Wife,' 
Scrub  in  'The  Beaux'  Stratagem,'  King  John, 
and  Othello.  In  1745-6  Garrick  was  at  Dub- 
lin, figuring  as  logo,  Faulcombridge  ('  King 
John'),  and  Oreetee  in  'The  Distressed 
Mother.'  His  first  appearance  at  Covent 
Garden  was  made  in  May,  1746,  as  Hotspur, 
to  which  succeeded  two  new  "  creations  " — 
FribbU  in  his  *  Miss  in  her  Teens '  (January, 
1747)  and  Ranger  in  '  The  Suspicious  Hus- 
band '  (February,  1747). 

On  April  9, 1747,  Gurick  became  partner, 
with  Willoughby  Lacy,  in  the  lesseeship  of 
Drury  Lane,  a  position  which  he  retained 
tiU  1776,  when  he  sold  half  of  his  interest 
in  the  theatre  to  B.  B.  Sheridan,  Linley, 
and  Ford,  holding  the  other  half  till  his 
death.  In  the  season  of  1747-8  he  was  seen 
at  the  Lane  as  Choru*  in  '  Henry  V.'  and  as 
Jaffier  in  *  Venice  Preserved,'  his  only  "  ori- 
ginal "  part  being  that  of  Young  Belmont  in 
'The  Foundling.'  In  1748-9  he  was  the 
first  Demetrius  in  Johnson's  'Irene,'  and 
the  first  Dorilas  in  Hill's  '  Merope,'  besides 
enacting  Benedick.  The  year  1749  was  that 
of  his  marriage  to  Eva  Mana  Violetti.  a  young 
dancer  who  had  captivated  "the  town." 
(The  union  was  a  happy  one,  and  the  lady 
lived  till  1822.)  In  January  and  February, 
1760,  respectively,  Garrick  added  to  his 
original  parts  Edward  the  Black  Prince  in 
"W.  Shirley's  play,  and  Horatius  in  'The 
Boman  Father.'  September,  1750,  witnessed   ' 


his  production  of  '  The  Merehantof  Venice  * 
and  of  '  Romeo  and  Juliet,'  in  which  he* 
played  Borneo.  At  Christmas,  1750,  he  pro- 
duced his  first  pantomime—'  Queen  Mab.' 
In  1751  he  was  the  first  Gil  Bias  in  K.  Moore's 
play  so  named,  and  the  first  Alfred  in  Mallet's 
masQue  thus  entitled,  besides  undertaking 
Kitelj/  in  his  own  arrangement  of  '  Everv 
Man  in  his  Humour.'  Another  "  original^ 
part  was  that  of  Mercour  in  Dr.  Francis's 
^£ug[enia'  (1752)*  and  in  the  same  year 
Oamck  was  Loveless  in  a  revival  of  'Love's 
Last  Shift.'  Three  "creations"  belong  to 
1753— Beverley  in  Moore's  'Gamester'  (in 
which  he  made  a  deep  impression),  Deme- 
trius  in  Young's  '  Brothers,  and  Dumnorix 
in  Glover's  '  Boadicea.'  Garrick's  still 
popular  adaptation,  'Katherine  and  Pe- 
truchio,'  was  fir&t  performed  in  March, 
1754— the  year  which  saw  the  production 
of  Crisp's  'Virginia'  and  Whitehead's 
'  Creusa,  in  which  Garrick  was  respectively 
the  Virginius  and  the  Aletes.  In  the  samo 
year  came  his  adaptation  of  '  The  Chances ' 
(q.v.),  in  which  he  played  Don  John;  his 
revival  of  '  Coriolanus ;'  and  his  production 
of  Brown's  '  Barbarossa,'  in  which  he  had 
the  title  part.  In  1755  he  brought  out 
his  adaptation  of  '  A  Midsummer  Night's 
Dream '  called  '  The  Fairies '  (q.v.).  Of  1756 
the  chief  incidents  were  his  production  of 

•  The  Winter's  Tale '  (adapted  by  himself,, 
and  with  himself  as  Leontes)  ;  his  revival  of 
'The Tempest'  (an  amalgam  of  Shakespeare 
and  Dryden^;  his  revival  of  'Lear'  {q.v.)\ 
the  production  of  his  Lilliput  (9. v.);  his 
appearance  as  Don  Felix  in  *  The  Wonder ; ' 
and  his  "creations"  of  Athelstan  in  Dr. 
Browne's  tragedv  and  of  Lord  Chalkstone 
in  his  own  'Lethe.'  In  1757  he  produced 
his  'Modem  Fine  Gentleman '  (afterwards 
called  '  The  Male  Coquette '),  and  appeared 
as  Biron  in  his  alteration  of  Soutbeme's 
'Fatal  Marriage'  and  as  Wilding  in  his 
adaptation  of  Shirley's  'Gamester.'  He 
next  figured  as  the  "original"  Lysander  in 

*  Agis,'  and  Pamphlet  in  '  The  Upholsterer/ 
enacting  also  the  Kina  in  *  Henry  IV.,  Pi. 
II.,'  Antony  in  an  abridgment  of  Sluike- 
speare's  tragedy,  and  Marplot  in  '  The  Bust- 
body.'  In  1759  he  played  Heartly  in  his 
adaptation  of  '  The  Guardian,'  and  produced 
both  'High  Life  below  Stairs '  (9. v.)  and  his 
own  pantomime,  'Harlequin's  Invasion.' 
Among  his  "original"  parts  at  this  time 
were  Lovemore  in  '  The  Way  to  Keep  him ' 
a760),  and  Oakley  in  'The  Jealous  Wife' 
(1761);  among  his  "standard"  roles,  Mer* 
cutio,  and  Posthumu^  in  his  adaptation  of 
'Cymbeline'  (1761).  He  was  the  first  Sir 
John  DorUant  in  '  The  School  for  Lovers  • 
and  the  first  Farmer  in  his  own  '  Farmer's 
Return  from  London  '—both  in  1762.  F^rly 
in  1763  he  "  created "  Alonzo  in  Mallet's 
'  Elvira'  and  Sir  Anthony  Branville  in  Mrs. 
Sheridan's  '  Discovery.'  In  March  he  was 
seen  as  Sciolto  in  *  The  Fair  Penitent.'  From 
that  date  onward  he  essayed  no  new  part. 

In  September,  1703.  Garrick  and  his  wife 
undertook  (for  the  latter's  health)  a  tour 
of  the  Continent,  which  included  Paris, 
Turin,    Rome,    Naples,    Parma,    Venice,

Gibbs,  KLrs.  [nSe  Logan].  Actress,  born 
1770  ;  daughter  of  an  Irish  actor  ;  made  her 
Lon<lon  debut  at  the  Ilaymarket  on  June 
18,  1783,  as  Sally  in  the  elder  Colman's 
•Man  and  Wife '  (^q.v.).  In  June,  1787,  «he 
appeared,  as  "Mrs.  Gibbs,"  at  the  Royalty 
Theatre,  in  the  rdle  of  Miss  Biddy  in  '  Miss 
in  her  Teens.'  "She  played  most  of  the 
characters  in  the  serious  pantomimes  that 
were  performed  there,  after  the  interdiction 
of  regular  pieces  "  (Oxberry ).  She  was  next 
engaged  by  the  younger  Colman  for  the 
Ilaymarket,  whence  she  went  successively 
to  Drury  lAne  and  Covent  Garden.  It  was, 
however,  at  the  Haymarket  and  in  the 
younger  Colman's  pieces  that  she  made 
most  mark.  Colman,  to  whom  she  was 
eventually  married,  is  said  to  have  written 
for  her  the  rClet  of  CHcely  in  '  The  Heir  at 
Law'  (1797}.  Annette  in  '  Blue  Devils' (1798). 
Grace  Gaytove  in  '  The  Review '  (1800),  and 
Mary  in  '  John  Bull '  (1803)-of  all  of  which 
she  was  the  original  interpreter.  William 
Ilobson  wrote  of  her,  in  1842  ('The  Old 
Playgoer,'  184«) :  "I  allow  your  Mrs.  Gibbs 
to  bo  a  very  fine  woman,  and  an  excellent 
actress-  but  when  she  was  Mary  [in  'John 
Bull  '1  she  might  have  gone  into  the  'thumb- 
ring  '  of  tlie  lady  you  Know.  She  was  one 
of  ttie  most  interesting  and  beautiful  women 
on  the  stage,  and  tne  naive  simplicity, 
pathos,  and  tenderness  with  which  she  filled 
the  character  were  fully  in  keeping  with 
the  great  talent  that  surronnaed  her." 
"Next  to  Mrs.  Jordan,"  says  'Oxberry'a 
Dramatic  Biography*  (1826),  "Mrs.  Gibbs 
was  decidedly  the  best  actress  in  her  line." 
Among  her  notable  parts  were  Katharine  in 
'Katherine  and  Petmchio,'  yrll  in  'The 
Devil  to  Pay,'  Mist  Sterling  in '  The  Clandes- 
tine ^larriage,"  Kate  Hardeastle,  and  Mrit. 
Candour.  See  Genest's  'English  Stage,' 
and  Peake's  '  Colman  Family '  (1841).

choleric  old  Englishman  ever  had  a  better 
representative.  His  Sir  Peter  Teazle  is  a 
companion  piece  of  almost  equal  merit,  but 
is  distinctly  inferior.  It  is  a  little  deficient 
in  polish.  Take  Old  Domton  in  the  *  Road 
to  Ruin  : '  no  more  perfect  picture  of  probity, 
benevolence,  and  tenderness  could  be  im- 
agined. What  a  wealth  of  humour  he 
infused  into  Lord  Dxiberly  !  His  Lord  Oqleby 
is  another  instance  of  his  wide  versatility, 
as  is  his  Sir  Francis  Oripe  in  the  *  Busy- 
body.' Even  more  striking  is  the  contrast 
between  his  M<uter  Walter  in  the  *  Hunch- 
back '  and  his  Mr.  Hardcoitle  in  *  She  Stoops 
to  Conquer.'  His  Sir  Harcourt  Courtly  is  as 
finisheu  a  modem  portrait  as  any  of  the  old 
ones  just  enumerated.  Who  would  suppose 
this  exquisite  was  identical  with  the 
ruffianly  McKenna  in  '  Rosedale,'  the  fussy 
old  Brueniouehe  in  *  A  Scrap  of  Paper,'  or 
the  jealous  old  husband  in  *  The  G  uvlior '  ?  " 
*'He  gave,"  writes  William  Winter  in 
'Shadows  of  the  Stage,'  "the  best  per- 
formance of  Caliban  that  ever  vras  seen  in 
America.  One  of  the  best  of  his  achieve- 
ments was  the  embodiment  of  the  Abbi 
Conntantin,  which  he  gave  when  his  days 
were  nearly  ended.  .  .  .  He  was  sometimes 
a  great  actor;  he  was  always  a  correct 
one."  See  the  "  Life  "  of  Gilbert  by  Howard 
Carroll.

in  1640.  Other  plays  ascribed  to  him  in 
the  Stationers'  Register  (16S3  and  1660) 
are  'The  Dachess  of  Ferrandina/  'The 
Vestal,*  'The  Parracide'  (thought  to  be 
identical  with  '  Rerenge  for  Honour  'X  and 
*  The  Noble  Trial '  (probablv  the  same  as 
'  The  Lady  Mother ').  Nothing  is  known  of 
Glapthome's  life,  sare  that  he  dedicated  a 
play  to  Strafford  and  a  poem  to  his  "  noble 
friend,"  Richard  Lovelace.  His  'Plays 
and  Poems'  were  "first  collected"  and 
published,  with  a  memoir,  in  1874.  See, 
also,  Bullen's  '  Old  English  Plays '  and  the 
tenth  volume  of  'The  Retrospective  Re- 
view.' * '  Qlapthome's  metaphors,  taken  from 
the  world  of  flowers  and  from  natural 
phenomena  in  general,  pleasingly  relieve," 
says  A.  W.  Ward,  "  the  commonplace  cha- 
racter  of  his  ideas.  In  no  other  respect  is 
he  worthy  of  being  singled  out  from  the 
crowd  of  contemporary  oramatiBts  "  (*  Eng*

GlasfiTOW.  The  early  history  of  the 
stage  in  this  city  was  like  that  of  the  stage 
in  all  other  Scottish  communities — a  con- 
tinuous struggle  against  popular  and  official 
prejudice.  So  early  as  1695  the  local  Kirk 
Session  is  found  crusading  against  "vain 

f>lay8,"  and  in  1670  the  local  magistrates 
nterdict  the  "  running  through  the  streets  " 
of  "strolling  stage  players."  In  1752  a 
wooden  booth  was  erected  in  the  Castle 
Yard  speciallv  for  theatrical  performances, 
and  among  those  who  appeared  in  it  was 
West  Digges  (q.v.).  Before  the  year  was  out, 
however,  the  building  was  completely  de- 
stroyed by  a  mob  of  fanatics,  inspired  by 
the  eloQuence  of  Whitefleld.  In  1764  a 
more  suostantial  structure  was  erected  in 
Grahamstown,  just  outside  the  city  boun- 
daries, and,  though  it  was  set  fire  to  by 
some  zealots— the  stage  properties  and 
costumes  being  quite  destroyed— it  was 
nevertheless  opened  on  the  advertised  day, 
with  Mrs.  Bellamy  (q.v.)  in  'The  Citizen' 
and  'The  Mock  Doctor.'  The  managers 
were  Beatt  and  Love,  who  held  sway  for 
four  years,  followed  in  1768  by  Williams, 
in  1772  by  West  Digges,  and  in  1773  by 
Ross,  the  comedian.  Next  came  Tate 
Wilkinson  (q.v.).  who  would  have  been  suc- 
ceeded in  1780  by  Bland,  Mills,  and  John 
Jackson  (q.v.),  had  not  the  theatre  been 
burned  down  in  tliat  year.  The  house  was 
not  rebuilt,  the  next  theatre  established  in 
Glasgow  being  that  which  was  set  up  by 
Jackson  alone  in  St.  Enoch's  Croft  (after- 
vraixis  Dunlop  Street)  in  1782,  at  the  cost  of 
over  £3000.  Jackson  was  manager  of  the 
Edinburgh  Theatre  also,  and  for  the  first 
few  year:*  of  his  reign  in  Dunlop  Street 
the  performances  in  both  houses  were 
furnished  by  the  same  company  of  players, 
by  whom  the  travelling  "  stars"  were  sup- 
ported. In  178)  came  Mrs.  Siddons,  and 
in  1790  King  and   Miss  Farren.     In  the 


latter  year  Jackson  became  bankrupt,  and 
Stephen  Kemble  took  the  reins,  wnich  he 
relinquished  in  1799  to  Jackson,  who  had 
meanwhile  retrieved  his  ill  fortunes  and 
acquired  a  partner  (Francis  Aiken).     In 
1804  Master  Betty  came  to  Dunlop  Street, 
which  was  destined,  however,  soon  to  hav0 
a  serious  rival— namely,  a  much  lai^er  and 
handsomer  theatre  erected  in  <)ueen  Street, 
at  the  cost  of  over  £18,000.  This  was  opened 
in  April,  1805,  by  Jackson  and  Aiken,  who 
had  been  accepted  as  lessees.     Jackson 
died  shortly  after,  and  the  Dunlop  Street 
house  was  then  sold  to  Andrew  Thomson,  a 
merchant,  for  commercial  purposes  mainly. 
Aiken's  place  at  Queen  Street  was  taken 
by  an  actor  named  Bock,  who  was  followed 
by  one  Beaumont,  the  resident  company 
then  including  Fanny  Kelly,  Mrs.  Glover, 
Mrs.  Orger,  Wewitzer,  and  Oxberry.    Miss 
Davison  had  been  seen  here  in  1805;  in 
1807  came  George  Frederick  Cooke,  Jack 
Bannister,   and   R.  W.  Elliston;   and  in 
1808,  Charles  Mayne  Young  and  Richard 
Jones.    In  1810  Bartley  and  Trueman  be- 
came managers,  followed  in  1812  by  Mont- 
gomerie,   under   whose    auspices  Charles 
Kemble    and    W.   C.    Macready   figured. 
Montgomerie   was   succeeded  in  1814  by 
Harry  Johnstone,  who   brought  Edmund 
Kean  there   in  1815  and   Miss  O'Neil  in 
1818  (in  which  year  the  theatre  was  for  the 
first  time  lighted  with  gas).     All  this  time 
part  of  the  Dunlop  Street  house  had  been 
used  for  miscellaneous  performances,  and 
in    1821   J.  H.   Alexander  undertook   iU 
direction.    In  1823  the  Queen  Street  The- 
atre had  two  lessees  in  succession — ^Taylor 
and  Bvme — and  Listen  was  seen  for  the 
first  tune.     A  second  theatre,  called  the 
Caledonian,  was  now  opened    in   Dunlop 
Street,  by  one  Kinloch.    In  1825  it  lacked  a 
tenant,  and  Alexander  offered  himself.    He 
had,  however,  been  anticif^ted  by  Frank 
Seymour,  stage  manager  at  Queen  Street. 
Nothing  daunted,  Alexander  hired  a  large 
room  in  the  basement  of  the  building,  and 
set  up  rival  performances.     Byrne,  mean- 
while, had  had  to  leave  Queen  Street,  and 
Seymour  now  took  his  place.    It  was  not 
for  long,  for  in  January,  1829,  the  theatre 
was  burned  to  the  ground.    Seymour  there- 
upon  opened  a  playhouse  which  had  been 
built  for  him  in  York  Street,  and  Alexander 
responded  by  drawing  public  attention  to 
his  considerable  enlargement  of  the  original 
Dunlop  Street  Theatre.     Among  the  suc- 
cessive "stars"  at  that  house  were  Van- 
denhoff,  T.  P.  Cooke,  and  Mackay  (1829), 
H.  F.  Lloyd  (1830),  Charles  Mathews  the 
younger  (1836),  Mrs.    Nesbitt   (1838),    and 
Charles  Kean  (18421     In  the  last  named 
year  D.  P.  Miller  began  theatrical  repre- 
sentations in  a  wooden  building,  called  the 
Adelphi,  which   he   had   erected   on   the 
Green.     Phelps  played  there  in  1843.     In 
that  year  Edmund  Glover  (q.v.)  and  Miss 
Faucit   first   appeared   in  Dunlop   Street, 
where,  in  1844,  Miss  Laura  Addison  was  in 
the  stock  company.     The  following   year 
saw  both  the  owning  and  the  destruction 
by  fire  of  the  City  Theatre,  which  J.  H.

appearance  on  the  stage  was  made  at  Dmry 
Tiane  on  July  12.  1850,  as  Mrs.  Maiaprop. 
Three  days  later  she  died.  Of  her  daughters, 
one,  named  Phyllis,  was  an  actress,  to 
whose  Juliet  her  mother  played  the  Nurse. 
(See  Glover,  Edmund,  and  Glover. 
Howard.)  '•  Macready,"  says  Lady  Pollock, 
"  spoke  of  Mrs.  Glover  as  a  rare  thinking 
actress.  She  carefully  thought  out  every 
part ;  she  was  very  perfect;  she  had  great 
powers "  ('  Macreatiy  as  I  knew  mm '). 
George  Vandenhoff  says.  *•  Mrs.  Glover  was 
a  gr^  actress:  ^ood  in  everything,  but 

ntest  in  a  certain  line  of  characters — the 
ling,  volatile  widow  {Racket  or  Wido%o 
Oreen),  the  affectedly  good-natured  but  truly 
malignant  ditto,  Mrs.  Candour,  or  the  vulgar 
and  Ignorant  ditto,  as  Mrs.  Maiaprop  and 
Mrs.  Heidelberg.  .  .  .  Her  manner  in  daily 
life  smacked  of  her  profession  :  it  was  large, 
autocratic,  oracular"  ('An  Actor's  Note* 
book'),  immediately  after  Mrs.  Glover's 
decease,  George  Henry  Lewes  wrote,  **  Her 
loss  will  be  felt  in  our  impoverished  dra- 
matic world,  for  to  the  last  she  retained  one 
quality  which  belongs  to  all  fine  actors,  but 
which  now  becomes  rarer  and  rarer— that, 
namely,  of  modulated  elocution"  (The  Leader, 
July  20,  1860).  "  Mrs.  Glover,"  says  West- 
land  Marston,  "  had  an  instinct  for  seizing 
traits  and  humours,  a  moderation  in  display- 
ing them  as  just  as  her  perception  of  them 
was  lively,  a  wide  range  of  appreciation,  and 
an  apparent  unconsciousness  which  gave 
wonderful  reality  to  her  delineations  "  (*  Our 
Recent  Actors ').  See,  also, '  Oxberry's  Dra-

Glyn.  Isabella  \nU  Geams].  Actress 
and  Shakespearean  reader;  born  at  Edin- 
burgh, May,  1823 ;  died  May,  1888 ;  after 
.some  experience  as  an  amateur,  went  to 
Paris  to  study  for  the  French  stage  under 
Michelot  at  tne  Ckinservatoire.  C^tuming 
to  England,  she  became,  in  1846,  a  pupil  of 
Charles  Kemble.  Her  professional  aiinU  (as 
Miss  "Glyn,"  her  mother's  maiden  name) 
took  place  at  the  Theatre  Royal.  Manchester, 
on  November  8, 1847.  when  she  appeared  as 
the  Lady  Constance  in  '  King  John.'  "  Her 
appearance,"  says  a  local  playgoer,  "was 
very  striking ;  with  a  tall  ana  somewhat 
voluptuous  figare.  rather  irr^ular  but  ex- 
pressive features,  black  hair  and  remarkable 
eves,  and  sometning  quite  imconventional 
about  her,  she  arrested  attention  at  once." 
She  was  first  seen  in  London  at  the  Olympic 
Theatre  on  January  26, 1848,  when  she  played 
Lady  Macbeth,  figuring  next  month  as  Jtf- 
liana  in  •  The  Honeymoon."  A  few  perform- 
ances on  the  York  Circuit  followed,  and  theo 
came  an  engagement  vdth  Phelps,  at  Sadler*!* 
Wells,  which  lasted  from  September,  1848, 
to  August,  1861.  Her  first  r6le  at  the  Wells 
was  that  of  Volumnia,  which  was  followed 
in  the  same  year  by  ITermione,  Belvidera, 
and  Queen  Katherine.  In  1849  she  appeared 
as  Margaret  o/Anjou  (*  Richard  m.'),  Portia 
f  *  Merchant  of  Venice '),  Isabella  ('  Measure 
lor  Measure  ')jKmilia  (*  Othello '),  Cleopatra 
(*  A ntonv  and  Cleopatra  'X  and  JuliaC  Hunch- 
back '),  besides  being  the  original  Countest 
in  Tomlins*  •  Garcia  ^(q-v. ).  in  1850  she  was 
the  first  Alice  Raby  in  G.  Bennett's  *  Retri- 
bution '  (7. v.),  besides  adding  to  her  reper- 
tory Mrs.  Beverley,  Donna  Anna(^  CaJaynosOu 
Isabella  (•  Fatal  Marriage '),  Bianca  ('  Fario '), 
Ladv  Randolph  (*  Douglas '),  Oinevra  (*  Le- 
gend of  Florence '),  Beatrice  (•  Much  Ado  *), 
Evadne  C  The  Bridal '),  and  the  Duchess  in 

*  The  Duchess  of  Malfi.'  To  1861  belongs  her 
Katherine  in  *  The  Taming  of  the  Shrew.* 
In  the  same  year  Miss  Glyn  gave  the  first 
of  those  "readings"  in  Shakespeare  which 
brought  her  so  much  popularity  both  in 
Great  Britain  and  in  America.  Later  in 
1861  and  early  in  1852  she  was  "  starred  "  at 
Drury  Lane.  In  1864  at  the  St.  James's  she 
was  the  original  Miss  Stewart  in  Reade  and 
Taylor's  '  The  King's  Rival '  (^.r.)-  In  1865 
she  played  at  the  Standard,  in  1869  at  Sad- 
ler's Wells,  in  1867  at  the  Princess's,  and  in 
1808  at  the  Standard  aaain,  making  her 
chief  successes  as  L<idy  alaeheth  and  Cleo- 
patra .  In  1870  she  ^ve  her  first  Shakespeare 
readings  in  America.  From  this  date  till 
her  death  she  confined  herself  exclusively 
to  platform  appearances.  In  1853  she  had 
marrietl  E.  S.  Dallas,  the  literary  critic,  and 
in  1874  she  divorced  him.    Edward  Stirling

so  named  (as  adapted  by  Rochester,  1685Jl 
Alexander  the  Great  and  Julius  Caesar  are 
said  to  have  been  his  best  parts.  Convicted 
of  having  engaged  in  a  highway  robbery,  he 
was  pardoned  by  James  IL  In  108S  he  left 
the  stage,  and  got  his  living  as  a  gamester. 
Latterly  he  was  known  and  prosperous  as 
the  favourite  of  the  Duchess  of  Cleveland. 
In  1696  he  was  concerned  in  a  plot  against 
the  life  of  WiUiam  in.,  but  escaped  to

Good-natured  Man  (The).  A  co- 
medy in  five  acts,  by  Oliver  Goldsmith 
(q.v.),  first  performed  at  Covent  Garden  on 
January  20,  1708,  with  Powell  in  the  title- 
part  (ifoneyicood),  Shuter  as  Croaker,  Wood-

GOOSE  WITH  GOLDEN  EGOS 


Dunstall  as  JarvU  (Honeyicood's  serTant), 
R.  Smith  as  a  bailiff.  Quick  as  a  post-boy, 
Mrs.  Balkeley  as  Miig  Richland^  Mrs.  Mat- 
tocks as  Olivia^  Mrs.  Pitt  as  Mr».  Croaker^ 
sxiti  Mrs.  Green  as  Oamet  (Olivia'a  maid). 
**  Honeytoood  is  good-natured  to  excess. 
His  generosity  to  unworthy  persons  reduces 
him  to  pecuniary  distress.  .  .  .  Sir  William 
Jioneytpoodt  on  his  return  from  Italy,  keeps 
himself  a  concealed  spectator  of  his  nephew's 
Actions.  He  buvs  up  a  debt  of  Honeytoood^a 
and  arrests  him  for  it.  Mis$  Richland  rescues 
him  from  the  arrest,  but  eiv}oins  her  agent 
to  observe  the  strictest  silence.  .  .  .  Honey- 
wood  is  in  love  with  her,  but  had  never 
owned  more  than  a  great  friendship  for  her. 
...  At  the  conclusion,  Horuyteood  becomes 
jsensible  of  his  folly  ;  his  uncle  Is  reconciled 
to  him  ;  Mi»9  Richland  gives  himi  her  hand  " 
(Geneat).  The  sub-plot  has  to  do  with  the 
loves  of  Leontine  and  Olivia,  Goldsmith 
began  the  play  in  1766,  and  completed  it  in 
the  following  year.  It  was  offered  first  to 
Oarrick,  but  accepted  in  the  end  by  Olman. 
Johnson  wrote  a  prologue  for  it,  but  this, 
says  Austin  Dobson,  **  turned  out  to  be 
(lispiriting.  Powell  was,  as  the  hero,  cold  and 
unsyrapaUietic.  On  the  other  hand,  Shuter 
proved  inimitable  in  the  part  of  Croaker, 
while  Woodward  was  almost  equally  good 
as  the  charlatan  Lofty.  The  success  of  the 
piece,  however,  was  only  qualified,  fuid  one 
scene  of  Mow'  humour,  in  which  some 
bailiffs  were  introduced,  gave  so  much 
offence  that  it  was  withdrawn  after  the 
first  representation."  The  comedy  was  per- 
formedTfor  ten  consecutive  nights,  and  Gold- 
smith made  about  £400  out  of  the  three 
"  author's  nights,"  with  a  further  £100  out 
of  the  publication  of  the  play  (to  which  the 
^suppressed  scene  was  restored).  **  When  I 
undertook  to  write  a  comedy."  said  Gold- 
smith in  his  preface,  "I  confess  I  was 
strongly  prepossessed  in  favour  of  the  poets 
of  the  last  age,  and  strove  to  imitate  them." 
*  The  Good-natured  Man '  was  revived  at  the 
Ilaymarket  on  August  26, 1783,  with  Edwin  as 
CroaJcer,  Palmer  as  Lojty,  Bannister,  jun.,  as 
Leontine^  and  Mrs.  Inchbald  as  Olivia;  at 
•Covent  Garden  on  April  20, 1789,  with  Farren 
as  Honeyuwod,  Macready  as  Leontine,  fUid 
Miss  Brunton  as  Miss  Richland  ;  at  the  same 
theatre,  April  22, 1800,  with  Pope  as  Uoney- 
toood  and  Munden  as  Croaker  [in  three 
acts] ;  at  the  Haymarket  in  1804,  with  0.

AS  Honeywood,  Miss  F.  Davenport  as  Mist 
RicJUand,  and  Mrs.  Gilbert  as  Mrs.  Croaker 
iD.  H.  Harkins  spoke  the  prologue  by  Dr. 
Johnson,  and  a  new  epilogue  by  William 
AVinter  was  spoken  by  the  company.  "  One 
character,  the  immodest  landlady,  was 
omitted.   The  capital  scene  with  the  bailiffs 


was  restored.  The  incidents  of  act  iv. 
were  transposed  so  as  to  make  Croaker's  dis* 
covery  of  the  letter,  and  characteristic  mis- 
construction of  its  meaning,  the  climax  "] ; 
at  the  Gaiety  Theatre,  London,  on  February 
2, 1881  (mating),  with  Miss  Litton  as  Miss 
Richland,  Miss  H.  Cress  well  as  Olivia,  J.

assents  by  implication.  He  is  a  most  in- 
fallible courtier,  and  follows  the  prince  like 
his  shadow."
