Fifth print in the Miseries of Human Life series. A crowd outside a lamp-lit theatre door (right) set in a colonnade; slanting rain streams towards them. A stout man and woman stand together, looking round in distress, while a ragged link-boy shouts at them. Younger ladies stand behind. A prostitute accosts a fop. A sedan chair rests on the ground, held by one chairman only. Two carriages drive in opposite directions, the coachman violently flogging the horses. Below: 'After the play, on a raw wet night, with a party of ladies – fretting and freezing in the outer lobbies, and at the street doors of the theatre, among chairman, barrow-women, yelling little boys, and other human refuse, in endless attempts to find out your servant, or carriage, which when found at last, cannot be drawn up nearer than a furlong from the door.'
