Theatre. This evening, the 12th instant, will be presented,
a tragedy (never performed here) called,
The first Part of King Henry IVth, with the humours of Sir
John Falstaff.
To which will be added, the farce of
The Upholsterer.
The characters by gentlemen of the army.
No admittance behind the scenes. Tickets to be purchased at
the time of registering places for the boxes, for which
purpose the clerk will attend at Mrs. Petit's, next door to
the theatre, from 11 o'clock till 2, every day after the
play is advertised. The doors to be opened at five, and to
begin precisely at seven o'clock. The gentlemen who have
taken places in the boxes, are desired to send their
servants at 4 o'clock, that they may be fixed before the
doors are opened.

Theatre of several gentlemen who were to have performed that
evening; the play of Henry the IVth is necessarily postponed
for the present, but is in rehearsal, and intended to
succeed the Inconstant. The public is hereby advertised that
all outstanding tickets will be received only this night, as
a particular set in future will be issued for each night's
performance. No money will be taken at the door. Tickets to
