Theatre-Royal. This evening, being the 7th instant, will be
presented, a tragedy, (never performed here) call'd, 
Tamerlane.
To which will be added, the farce of 
The Mock Doctor.
In the character of Leander will be introduced two songs.
The farce of the Anatomist is obliged to be deferred on
account of the great preparations for Tamerlane. 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 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. Vivant Rex
& Regina.
