The players at the Red Bull are accused of having performed a scandalous play, which libelled 'some persons of quality' and reflectedly on the civil courts and government. The play, now lost, was called 'The Whore New Vamped.' The Privy Council orders the Attorney General to summon and examine the playwright, company and individual responsible for licensing the play so that exemplary punishment will deter others.
