The Swindler. Comedy, 2 acts

Manuscripts

No application. Printed copy, 1785. J.P.C. in B.D.: It may be doubted whether it was not acted. It was certainly sent to Larpent in order to be licensed, but it does not appear from which Theatre. [The mere presence of an unannotated printed copy, without manager's letter, among Larpent's MSS is not indication that the piece was acted or even sent for license.]

False Shame. Comedy, 3 acts. From Augustus von Kotzebue

Manuscripts

No application. [Norwich, Mar. 17, 1801?] MS: no indication of theatre. Comp. 1799 (K-D 351): MS is apparently a reduction of the translation, printed in four acts, to three acts, accomplished chiefly by cutting the dialogue and inserting a few scenes; other differences are slight. J.P.C. in B.D.: False Shame,..., was sent for License from Norwich Mar 17. 1801 and licensed by Larpent-It was probably founded on LA 100 [i.e., False Shame]. (B.D., II, 220.)
