rollowing correCt account of the theatrical career 4:t
the young Phenomenon, who has now become an oh-
jeft of fuch public notice. The young lady made
her firfi debut on the hoards of the &Hitt Theatre, on
the t Bth of May lafi, in the character of roues oor
vgl, which charafter the performed for four nights
fucceflively, amidft innumerable plaudits, the bottle
overflowing every night ; the fourth being for her be-
nefit, the whole pit was filled at box price, by which
the cleared; 141. She then renewed her engagement for
four nights longer, and on the night of her fecond
benefit, the whole houfe was opened at double price ;
during the time the was performing at Belfast, her
fame having made a great noife in Dublin, the receiv-
ed the offer of an engagement from Mr. Jones, the
Manager of that Theatre, to receive fifty pounds per
night, for fix nights, and the feventh to be for her be-
nefit, or as an additional inducement, a fecond letter
was fent, to (hare the receipts of the houfe after the
Manager taking eighty pouads each night for the ex•
pence' of the bottle. The laft offer was accepted,
and the young Phenomenon made her appearance in
the Theatre-Royal, Dublin, to a very full bottle, and
was received with three diflina rounds of applaule,
after which, from her uncommon diminutive figure, I
much doubt was entertained as to the perbikr of bar
ever being able to go through the chars her r—on,
her beginning to (peak, the greatell attention pre-
vailed, and no ACtrel. ever made an audience parti-
cipate
more in her own feelings ; the changed them
from paflive fpe,ftators to aetive agents. and their)
pi/Om:inn was In rapid and complete, that its tria-
lonce was not deteCled till recaion had fucceeded to
the Pferviorce which the domineering powers of the In-
fart Phenomeurtn had laid them under I.—The next
night the Lord Lieutenant honoured theTheatre with
his pretence, when the repeated the charafter, (rosing
Norval) ; and on the third night appeared in the
parts of tilde Peggy, in the Country Girl, and (tell,
in the Dee:! to Pay, to a very crowded Houfe, the
Boxes being filled with all the brilliance of Dublin.
She continued her cogagemenc with the greateft fuc
eels, and on the 7th night, being (other benefit, the
repeated the cliaraecr of Mifr Peggy, whit the part
of Roxalana, in the Ito ee of the Sultan ; at an early
hour the Theatre was furronnded by an immenfe
crowd, the receipts of the H ail: amounted to 3t61.
14s. During the time the was in Dublin, the received
an offer of an engagement from Mr. M'Casarty, the
Birmingham manager, for a few nights, which was
accepted, to (hare the Houle after the expenses, and
the salt night to be for her benefit ; the applaule be-
flowed upon her at the two fait places was faithfully
echoed by the Birmingham audience. She next re-
ceived an offer from the Cheltenham managers, (on
the fame terms), where the performed to the billion-
able audience that frequent that place, and fuch was
her attraction there, that the Boxes were not only
filled on the nights of he: performance, but even on
the morning during the rehearfal. While (he cis
performing at Chelter ham, the Gloucefter Ileum
was opened for one night only, and although the
company with force ri the heti performers of the age,
have played in that town to 81. the receipts on this
night amounted to 421. From hence the went toßux•
ton, where (he performed with her ufual fuccefs, and
was offered a large Cum if the would have recited
and fling in private. She was next under an en-
gagement to pertorm four nights at Nottingham, and
tin ee at Derby, (where the now is.) She then plays
on the isth at Liverpool, having made an Engage-
ment for that place while in Dublin ; the then pro-
ceeds to London to prepare for her appearance at the
Theatre-Royal, Covent Garden. We are told the is
to receive rood. and a clear benefit, for performing
fifteen nights. The Phenomenon appears to be the
only one who is purfuing, paisbkr equir, the radiant
track of the YOUNG ROC lUS.
