By permission of his Honour the Lieutenant Governor, For the
Benefit of Mr. Morris,
By a Company of Comedians. At the New-Theatre in Chapel-
Street, This evening, being the 22d of March, will be
presented, a Comedy, written by Capt. Farquhar, call'd
The Beaux Stratagem.
The part of Archer, to be perform'd by Mr. Hallam. Aimwell,
to be perform'd by Mr. Douglass. And the part of Scrub, to
be perform'd by Mrs. Douglass. To which will be added, (by
particular desire) A Ballad Opera, call'd Flora, or, Hob in
the Well. The part Flora, by Mrs. Hallam.
To begin exactly at six o'clock.
Tickets to be had of Mr. Gaine, in Hanover-Square, and of
Mr. Morris, at his lodgings, at Mr. Earle's, Hatter, near
Beckman's Slip.
Boxes 8 s.--- Pit 5s.--- Gallery 3s.
There are partitions made to divide the side-boxes from one
another, and thereby render them more commodious for select
companies. The ladies and gentlemen who chuse to have boxes
reserv'd for them, are desir'd to send to Mr. Morris.
[Hand pointing right] The ceremony of waiting on ladies and
gentlemen at their houses with bills, has been for some time
left off in this company: the frequent solicitations on
these occasions, having been found rather an inconvenience
to the person so waited on, than a complement: For which
reason, Mr. Morris, hopes the town will dispense with a
personal application, and favour him with their company.
