On Thursday evening next, the 25th instant, (being the last

the tragedy (never performed here) of

To which will be added, a farce (also never performed here)
called,
Who's the Dupe.
The characters by gentlemen of the Army.
Box tickets only to be had 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 five, and to begin precisely at
seven 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 as responsible for any disappointment that may
happen from such neglect.
No persons can be admitted behind the scenes.
