Book Description
Excerpt from Quid Pro Quo; Or, the Day of Dupes: The Prize Comedy; In Five Acts; As First Performed at the Theatre Royal, Hay-Market; On Tuesday, June 18, 1844 A bitter opposition to the Prize Comedy selected among ninety-seven competitors, was inevitable. Though personally a stranger to the members of the Committee by whom the prize was adjudged, and though, the play being sent in like the rest, anonymously, the writer was first apprized of its success by the newspapers, a rumour has been industriously circulated that the premium was partially adjudged; and the impression thus created, has proved scarcely less fatal to the interests of the piece, than the vast expectations arising from the institution a prize, which, after all, could create no new talent among the existing dramatists of the day. The angry champions of the rejected plays have, however, injured their own cause, by convincing the public how bad must be the dramas unanimously voted inferior to the comedy they so vehemently disparage. A pre-knowledge of the intentions of a certain portion of the audience by which "Quid Pro Quo" was condemned, in a great measure unheard, determined the manager to try a second appeal to the public; and the result has been as brilliantly successful, as the first ordeal was vexatious. Unfortunate, like "The Rivals," in a first representation, it now succeeds in drawing crowded houses, and eliciting the hearty laughter so welcome to the ears of the performers.
