Theatre Royal.  On Saturday next, the 1st of April, will be
presented, a comedy, called 
Catharine & Petruchio 
To which will be added, a farce, never performed here,
called 
Love a-la-Mode.
Between the play and farce will be performed a solo concerto
on the hautbois.
The characters by gentlemen of the army.
Places for the boxes to be registered at Mr. Petit's, next
door to the Theatre, otherwise they cannot be kept.  Tickets
to be had at Mr. Petit's and the different printers. The
doors to be opened at 5, and to begin precisely at 7
o'clock. The managers having repeatedly pointed out the
necessity of sending servants in due time, to secure places
taken in the boxes, beg leave once more to request the
attention of the public to that regulation, otherwise they
will not consider themselves as responsible for any
disappointment that may happen from such neglect.  No money
can possibly be received at the door, as the number of
tickets are issued which the house will hold.  No person can
be admitted behind the scenes.  Vivant Rex & Regina.
