The Country Squire
The Country Squire is a comedy in two acts by Charles Dance (1794–1863)[1]
First performed at the Theatre Royal Covent Garden in London, on January 19th 1837.
The full title as published in Webster's Acting National Drama by Chapman and Hall in 18**, is The Country Squire, or Two Days at the Hall
The comedy is wrongly given by Bosmnan (p.416) as The Country Squire, or Two Days at the Hill, though this may have been an error by the performers rather than the historian.
