A Duelling Comedy at Corsat Garden Theatre Royal
A long mixed review recounts a new comedy at Theatre Royal Corsat Garden, detailing Emilia Whitmore and Whitmore's romance, Governor Mammon, Sir Solomon Bauble, and Lord Lovemore amid meddling relatives, disguises, and a chaotic masquerade plot. The piece, attributed to Dr. Kintick, meets audience disapproval for weak performances though Miss Yates and Miss Davies receive praise for acting and music, while Metastasio's influence and Sacchini’s score are noted along with an extended moral political digression on matrimony and law reform.
