Scope and content
Thanks Beaton for his letter. Was pleased to hear that Greta is well. It is a pity that she cannot find something to occupy her mind. Feels that creative people 'who have nothing to do all day but think about themselves' can never be in good health. He sent her a present so that she would know that he hadn't forgotten her this Christmas. Has been to see a lot of shows this Christmas. Discusses the shows that he has been to see. Was pleased to hear from Beaton that John Gielgud is such a success in New York. Has found a new comedy to produce on T.V. Discusses various projects he is working on in the coming year. Is not sure if he will be able to go to Austria for a holiday. Hopes that Beaton's designs for the play are going well. Sends his love to Greta.
