Theatie Royal, OPira-hotisi, Sept. 1816. ohseeratioas On the Statetavut 'ered, to the Pablie at this Theatre on Moudly last, which Mr. KinnutrA hiti thought proper IP add! es to plt,, render it necessary that I sh9Uld truable you with alew in reply - Mr. Kitmaird st.ites, that " his name is select . - " ed to betir whnteverlittiti may attach to the " performance of an ungracious duty." —ln 'an swer, I believe, I shall Make it itiiit66r, - Thal Mr. Kinnaird bAslfiA Only v‘olnuteered the ,responsi bility of this " ungracious no-duty," but, if I may place any reliance on the opinions of those whom I have consulted, that he has actually courted 'the odium which I humbly presume miM, and will, attach to him, by acting in.opPosition so a ma jority of his coa , ljutots . , %rho judge more•liberally towards the public.and the performers. It is well known that the Sub-Cinnmittee of Drury-lane Theatre consists of five Gentlethea— Ow of this number one bas been abetted for some months- 7 -one absent, for some Weeks in - the coon try-and it is nniversally reported throughout the Company that the Opinions of two others of the Members are avowedly in direct oppositiOo to the oppressive act of which I have to complain. If there had.been nothing more than " the perform ance ofaut ungracious duty" in Mr. Kinnaird's condUct towards this Theatre throughout the late contentions, and especially in this, hiS last act of oppression, 1 cannot understand why he should take upon himself to assume an authority by which be must incur a personal responsibility, when the opinions of the majority of, the Sob- Committee on the spot (if correctly stated) must pare acquitted him of all blame for leaning (even against his individual judgment) to the side of good feeling and respect towards the public. In regard to. theasutholity quoted by 11 r. !laird " of ALL those Performers of brury-Lane ThAtre, to whose opinions, long expetience of the stage, and poblic favour, will affix some value, and whom he mentions as entirely acquiescing in he propriety and established usage of the conduct on the present occasion pursued i" I cannot but. re gret that Mr. Kinnaird hai omitted to give value to this Mohor ity, by naming even a few of ALL the performers ‘vliose opinions are in favour of his conduct ! because I will !Ike upon myself to assert, without fear of contradiction, that in, a general meeting of the whole profession, the question, both as it relates to " propriety and established usage," would he carried by acclama tion against him, , niost !lather trouble you with an observation on one more point of Mr. Rinnaird's letter. Ile mentions the reading a letter from Mrs. Urger. on the stage, as an act which 4 ' he has no doubt will prove to have been a most untharrantable liberty." I run surprised that Mr. Kinnaird should require to be informed that " propriety and establiskd usage" rendered this measure absolutely necessary. Mr. Kinnaird, I should have supposed, must by this time have learned, that when the public,are disappointbd of the promised appearance of a per former, the causes of that. disappointment cannot botoo carefully, too oxplicitly, ton distinctly stat ed—the favour of the public is held by too delicate a tenure to he trifled with ; and it ever imcbeen the invariable custom, on similar occasions, 'lur ing the years of my theatrical experience, to retad publicly such letters as assign causes for the non appearance of pertortners. This " unwarrantable, literty," therefore, is sanctioned by preced ent 60 much older than Mr. Kinnaird's manag eme n t, that trust 1 shall stand acquitted of the charge, both by the lady herbelt, and by every one (evert by Mr.'Kinnaird hinuelf), when the subject shall be conNidered dispassionately and fairly. Mi. Harris's trsertion, " that as long 'as 11, " cat, remember Theatres, it has been invariably '' 'the custom to allow no regularly eugageli per- . " formers to Oil at any other Theatre afar the " commencement of the season's performances," has, 1 confess; surprised me. ForMerly, no such permission was requisite SoMe years back the ,winter Theatres' closed When the Hay ..... market Theatre opened---about the . 15th of May :: and even long -previous to the last eight yeais it was the custom of the winter Theatres to close early in June, and not to re-open'" (its Mr. Harris acknowledges) until the 15th of September, Rye') it, those latter days, the Haymarket Theatre con- • lined their seasons to the shortened period allowed by the patentees, and consequently no such per mission was required by the performers. lint ' dnt jug the last eight years, since the winter esta bllshmenta have protracted their seasons of per lormance until long after the sun has descended from the summer solstice, my memory is mneh at variance with that of Mr. Harris ; for it greatly misleads me if the performets have nut been con stantly allowed the privilege of performing at the Hay-market Theatre before the closing and after the opening of the winter Theatres. In 'respect to the 'performers becoming . " so hacknied in the. eyes of the public, that they lose their attraction of novelty," 1 must presume to say, that this doctrine is directly at variance with received opinion and admitted' experience. The performers are aware, that the' greatest possible professional advantage they can receive is to be constantly (ay, nightly) placed betore the eyes of the'public.' 01 those who have real talent the vast population of London are never tired ; and with those less highly gifted, they become gradnally acquainted, while gradual improvement is the result of constant practice before the most polished audience in the kingdom. I beg leave to conclude by disaitowing any per sonal ill feeling towards Mr. Kinnaird out of the, Theatre Royal Drury-lane, and with asserting my right; as the proprietor - .of a theatre which has -beer , treated with oppressive hostility by hitm as the prnprietor through whom the perfortnert have been sorely ini'oretr, and as one . of the meta-' hers of - the " Theatre-Royal Drury-lane.
