Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Of the six little plays in this volume, three are arranged primarily as frames for ballets. Dancing as a spectacle becomes increasingly popular, and the sketches I have provided may be found useful to those who are organising entertainments.<br><br>I have written all the plays with a view to their simplification if necessary. Even Venus and Cupid (the most ambitious of the dancing-sketches since it assumes a properly equipped stage) can be arranged less elaborately than it is written; while Queen Flora’s Court – which provides a certain amount of acting, as well as dancing – and The Dryad’s Awakening may well be performed out of doors. The Old Toys should be easy to produce without stage appliances, and though in Robin Goodfellow a little stage carpentry is suggested to heighten the effect, it is quite possible to dispense with its aid.
