A theatre seen diagonally from the pit, with the stage on the right, two side boxes forming a background. On the stage a man in quasi-classical dress holds a dripping dagger, a woman lies at his feet; through an open door the prompter is seen. The audience is much disturbed: in the foreground a stout citizen holds a smelling-bottle to the nose of his (apparently) fainting young wife; she takes a note from a young man on the bench behind her. Behind stands a bearded Jew. In the stage-box two seated figures resemble the King and Queen, a man standing behind resembles Pitt. Cf. BMSat 9098. 12 November 1795
