Some Selected Reports from The Windsor and Eton Express



9th September 1837

Theatre Royal

The theatre has this week been much better attended than during the preceding part of the season. On Tuesday night the performances were by the command of Her Majesty, on which occasion there was a very numerous audience, and the performances went off remarkably well. The orchestra was also that evening considerably augmented. On Wednesday Miss Mayoss took her benefit, and we were glad to see that this very pleasing singer had what may be termed a good house. In addition to the other amusements, which were William Tell (in which Mr. Green appeared to great advantage as the hero), and the Poor Soldier, a selection of various pieces of music were admirably performed by Miss Mayoss, Mr. Yarnold and Mr.Moulton. Last evening Miss R. Penley took her benefit, and we were happy to see that her talents were duly appreciated by the public. The selection of pieces for next week (which closes the season) is a most judicious one on the part of the manager. It will be seen, on reference to the advertisement, that on Monday the performance will be under the patronage of the Members of the Borough, on Tuesday Mr.Yarnold will take his benefit; and on Thursday the Mayor and Town council will extend their patronage to the theatre.
