FTP, name this play in which Mr. Sneer and Mr. Dangle view a rehearsal of a tragedy by Mr. Puff, a work of Richard Sheridan.
In one scene in this play, the invocation of the queen's name causes all of the characters onstage to drop their swords, and in another scene, one character comes on stage, sits down, shakes his head, gets up, and goes off stage.  Early on, a French musician and Italian musician have a conversation with one of the central characters in which no one understands each other, and a later scene sees Beefeater kill Whiskerandos in a duel.  In the first act, one character identifies himself as a "practitioner in panegyric" and the central household receives a visit from Sir Fretful Plagiary.
