Comedy of The Provokes Husband at Drury Lane
Last night the Drury Lane company premiered The Comedy of The Provokes Husband to a fashionable audience at half price, the house full. The piece is praised except for Burton as Squire Richard whose acting spoils the broad country humor. Duchess of Campertano watches with Mrs Hosart from her box after arriving from elsewhere.
