Harriet Waylett
Harriet Waylett (1798–1851) was an English actress and theatre manager.
==Early life==
The daughter of a tradesman in Bath, Somerset, Harriet Cooke was born there on 7 February 1798; her uncle was a member of the Drury Lane Theatre company, and Sarah Cooke was her cousin. After receiving some instruction in music from one of the Loders of Bath, she appeared on the Bath stage on 16 March 1816 as Elvina in W. R. Hewetson's ''Blind Boy''.〔In the following season she appeared as Leonora in ''The Padlock'' and Madge in ''Love in a Village'', and played in Bristol and, it is said, Brighton.〕 She then acted at Coventry, where she met and married in 1819 Waylett, an actor in the company. In 1820 she was at the Adelphi Theatre, where she was the original Amy Robsart in James Planché's adaptation of ''Kenilworth'', and the first Sue to her husband's Primefit in William Moncrieff's ''Tom and Jerry''. She played as "Mrs. Waylett late Miss Cooke of Bath".
In 1823 Mrs. Waylett was acting in Birmingham under Alfred Bunn, playing in Sally Booth's part of Rose Briarly in ''Husbands and Wives''. Her singing of ''Rest thee, Babe'', in ''Guy Mannering'' established her in favour.〔〔Cicely in ''The Heir at Law'' and Thérèse in the piece so-named followed. She played five parts in 'Chops and Changes, or the Servant of All Work,' and was seen as Jenny Gammon in 'Wild Oats,' Ellen in 'Intrigue,' Aladdin, Lucy in the 'Rivals,' Cherry in 'Cherry and Fair Star,' Patch in the 'Busy Body,' Tattle in 'All in the Wrong,' Susanna in the 'Marriage of Figaro,' Priscilla Tomboy in the 'Romp,' Diana Vernon, Mary in the 'Innkeeper's Daughter,' Chambermaid in the 'Clandestine Marriage,' Jessica, Marianne in the 'Dramatist,' Clari in 'Clari, or the Maid of Milan,' in which she sang 'Home, sweet Home,' Lucetta in the 'Suspicious Husband,' Clementina All-spice in the 'Way to get Married,' Bizarre in the 'Inconstant,' Zelinda in the 'Slave,' and in many other characters.〕
