Theatre-Royal. (By particular desire) Wednesday evening
next, being the 19th instant, will be presented, a tragedy,
called 
Richard III.
To which will be added, the farce, (never performed here) of

Flora; or, Hob in the Well. 
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 persons
can be admitted behind the scenes. Vivant Rex & Regina.
