Theatre. On Monday next, the 1st of May, will be presented,
a tragedy, (never performed at this theatre) called,
The Distress'd Mother. With the original prologue.
To which will be added, (by particular desire)
Flora; or, Hob in the Well. In which will be introduced the
favourite song of "Lads and Lasses."
Box tickets to be had only of Mr. Petit, next door to the
Theatre. Pit and gallery at Mr. Rivington's, Mr. Gaine's,
and of Mr. Petit.
The characters by gentlemen of the army.
The doors to be opened at five, and to begin precisely at
seven o'clock. No money can possibly be received at the
door, as the number of tickets are issued which the house
will hold. 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.

registered at twelve o'clock on the day of the play's being
first advertised, and attendance given for the same purpose

the due number of tickets being produced. There will in
future be particular tickets for each night's performance,
and none other admitted. April 26, 1780.
