Theatre-Royal. [Notice of performance of] Douglas, to which
will be added a farce called, 
The Upholsterer. 
The characters by gentlemen of the army.
Tickets to be had at Mr. Petit's, and the different
printers.  Places for the boxes to be registered at Mr.
Petit's, next door to the Theatre, otherwise they cannot be
kept.  The doors to be opened at 5, and to begin precisely
at 7 o'clock.  The managers desire that servants may be sent
to keep the places taken at Mr. Petit's, for the boxes,
otherwise they cannot be answerable for their being filled
by other company.  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.
N.B. The managers, finding it necessary from some frauds
lately discovered, hereby advertise the public, that all
outstanding tickets will only be received this night, and
that a new set on a different plan will be issued for the
next performance. Vivant Rex & Regina.
