Today, the Admiral's Men staged The Wise Man of West Chester, a lost play that appears to have been about a wizard in the English city of Chester; you can read more about it in the entry for 3 December, 1594.

The company has waited a fortnight to revive The Wise Man of West Chester and it has returned exactly the same - very low - box office that it did last time.
