Autograph Letter from Charles Macklin to George Colman


Book Description

Refers to his agreement with Covent Garden Theatre; proposes Love à la mode, The true-born Irishman, and a new farce; also mentions that he has by him an altered version of Philaster, a play he thinks "will stamp a peculiar and a permanent Fame upon Mr. Powel in the Character of Philaster, and upon Miss Macklin in that of Bellario, for whose Talents and Powers the alter'd Part is specifically adapted."
