Arcadia or the Shepherds Wedding at Drury Lane
A opaque 17th century theatre review describes Arcadia or the Shepherds Wedding at Drury Lane. It notes two hundred lines without a plot and praises Delia and Dametas, with a veiled compliment to the monarch in allegory. The piece lasts about half an hour and includes dances and a sea vessel pageant.
