Excerpt from Biographia Dramatica, or a Companion to the Playhouse, Vol. 3 of 3: Containing Historical and Critical Memoirs, and Original Anecdotes, of British and Irish Dramatic Writers, From the Commencement of Our Theatrical Exhibitions A Farce, in two acts, by T. Merchant. Svo. No date. This enter tainment, which is said to have been performed with the most flattering approbation at the The atre Royal, Manchester, was print ed at Huddersfield, in a volume, including also the author's Fit gitive Pieces in Prose and Verse. The name of fiferchant, we under stand to have been a fictitious one, assumed at that time by Mr. Thomas Bildin. - There is little plot, but considerable humour, in this piece, which has been since acted, for a benefit, at Cor ent Garden, under the latter title only. 14. Thi: iviad-house. A Re hearsal of a new Ballad Opera, burlesqued, called the mad Housz, after the manner of Pas quin, by R. Baker. Acted at Lin coln's Inn Fields. 8vo. 1737. 15. The mad-house. But. By W. C. Oulton. Dublin. 12mo. 1785. 16. The mad lover. Tragi Com. By Beaumont and Fletcher. Fol. 16-17; 8vo. 1778. This play is particularly commended by Sir Aston Cokain, in his copy of verses on Fletcher's plays. The scene lies at Paphos. The plot of Cleanthe's suborning the priest to give a false oracle, in favour of her brother Syphax, is borrowed from the story of Mundus and Paulina, in Josephus, book xviii. Ch. 4. 17. The mad Lovsn. There would seem to have been an opera, with this title [see Acrs and GA latea, Masque, by Motteux] but we have not met with it; nor do we find it mentioned in any former list. 18. The madman. Burletta. Performed at Marybone Gardens. 4to. 1770. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
