# The Fatal Retirement

The Fatal Retirement is a 1739 tragedy by the writer Anthony Brown. In his published version of the work, Brown complained about the last minute withdrawal of star actor James Quin from the play and the generally poor performance of the rest of the cast which he blamed for its public failure.

The original Drury Lane cast included William Mills as Artamon, William Milward as Lanertes, Edward Berry as Ceron, Anna Marcella Giffard as Semandra, Elizabeth Butler as Sabia and Elizabeth Mills as Leonora.
