Which Haymarket Theatre?

If Doggett retired in 1713 and died in 1720 it is unlikely he was the manager of the Theatre Royal, Haymarket as this did not open until 1720! More likely it was Her Majesty's Theatre. Rocker Ages (talk) 09:42, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Died in poverty"

This is surprisingly stupidly complicated. I can confirm that this plaque used to say that: there's a photograph from Stephen Lubell's 2010 article on William Sharpington who did the plaque. (I just did an article on Sharpington, which is why I was looking Doggett up.)

However, Sharpington's wooden plaque has been replaced. The current plaque, although very similar in layout to Sharpington's wooden one, does not say that. (Sharpington often worked in paint and wood, which is a blow for posterity, because it meant a lot of his beautiful work only survives in photographs.)

I think remove this, since I don't know if this reflects changes in scholarship or what. Blythwood (talk) 21:51, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
