Theatre-Royal. On Wednesday next the 7th inst. will be
presented, (for the last time of performing this season) the
comedy of (not performed this year) 
She Stoops to Conquer or The Mistakes of a Night, 
to which will be added, a farce, (also never performed here)
called, 
All the World's a Stage. 
The characters by gentlemen of the army. 
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 doors to be opened at 5, and to begin
precisely at 7 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 responsible for any
disappointment that may happen from such neglect.  No
persons can be admitted behind the scenes. Vivant Rex &
Regina.
