Dramatic piece EDGAR and EMMELINE at Drury Lane 1761
The review outlines Hawsk worth's EDGAR and EMMELINE at Drury Lane. Edgar and Emmeline disguise as opposite sexes guided by fairies to court for four months. The plot blends sentiment with comedy via Florimel. Miss Wright and Master Kennedy shine as child fairies. Arne’s music praised.
