I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble finding information on popular plays in London in the 1800s. It can sometimes be challenging to find specific information from that time period, especially if it's not easily accessible on the internet. Here are a few suggestions to help you in your search:
1. Libraries: Try visiting your local library and ask a librarian for assistance. They may have access to historical books, archives, or databases that contain information on popular plays in London during the 1800s.
2. Academic Databases: Consider using academic databases such as JSTOR, ProQuest, or Project MUSE. These databases often have a wide range of scholarly articles, journals, and historical sources, which may include information on the plays from the 1800s.
3. Books: Go to bookstores or check online retailers for books on the history of theater or London during the 1800s. Look for titles that specifically cover the topic you're interested in, such as "History of Theater in the 19th Century" or "London's Theatrical Scene in the 1800s."
4. Historical Societies and Museums: Contact local historical societies or museums in London. They may have archives, exhibits, or resources that focus on the theater scene during the 1800s. Their staff may be able to guide you towards relevant information or recommend further sources.
5. Theatre Organizations: Reach out to theater organizations in London, especially those with a historical focus. They might have resources, publications, or experts who can help you find information on popular plays from that time period.
Remember, historical research often requires patience and persistence. Keep searching through different sources and approaches, and don't hesitate to ask for assistance from experts in the field. Good luck with your project!
