Notes
Mrs Ward is extremely sorry she is oblig'd to change the Night's Entertainment advertised for her Benefit, but the severe illness of Mrs Mattocks and Mrs Baker makes it impossible to perform the Opera of Love in a Village, as does Mr Woodward's indisposition the Farce of the Citizen
The Managers have therefore kindly granted her the above tragedy and pantomime
Supplementary charge: includes candles, bagg pipes, chorus singers
