By permission of his Honour the Lieutenant-Governor, for the
benefit of Mr. Quelch. By a company of comedians. At the
New Theatre, in Chapel-Street, on Monday next, being the 1st

Shakespear, and alter'd by Mr. Garrick, call'd,
Romeo and Juliet.
The part of Romeo, to be perform'd by Mr. Hallam, Prince, by
Mr. Douglass; Paris by Mr. Tomlinson; Mountague, by Mr.
Sturt; Capulet, by Mr. Morris; Mercutio, by Mr. Douglass;
Benvolio, by Mr. A. Hallam; Tibalt, by Mr. Reed; Friar
Lawrence, by Mr. Allyn; Friar John, by Mr. Tremain, the

To begin exactly at six o'clock.
Tickets to be had of Mr. Gaine, printer, at the Bible &
Crown, Hanover-Square, and of Mr. Quelch, at his lodgings,
at Capt. Crew's, next door but one to the theatre.
Boxes 8s. Pit 5s. Gallery 3s.
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 persons so
waited on, than a compliment; for which reason, Mr. Quelch
hopes the town will dispense with a personal application,
and favour him with their company.
