Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The British Theatre, Vol. 15 of 25: Or a Collection of Plays, Which Are Acted at the Theatres Royal, Drury Lane, Covent Garden, and Haymarket
This is the drama, in which Master Betty made his first appearance on a London stage. Curiosity to see him, was equalled by admiration on beholding him. His beauty and grace were like that of a seraph.
Of his genuine talents as an actor, no greater num ber of persons can perhaps judge, than can estimate the true value of a painting - and they are few indeed.
