Item 8 - Autograph letter to Beaton, from London

Thanks Beaton for his letter and for the 'devestating' notice for "Women in Twilight". Wonders how Aldrich and Myers intend to do the play. Feels that it needs a certain style of production to bring it to life. Discusses the American style of production. Feels apprehensive at the choice of Mr and Mrs March playing the painter and his wife. Was glad to hear that Myers thought that the play was greatly improved. Discusses one of his plays. It had its production on Monday and it went well. One of the leading players for "The Cherry Orchard" has had a nervous breakdown. Had his first rehearsal for "The Shadow and the Peak". Discusses other plays. Saw a good play called "The Happy Time".
