Scope and content
Weissberger writes that reading the reviews have made him realise he had lost perspective on the play, which can still be improved. He feels though that the critics are harsher with the play because the name Cecil Beaton is attached to it. He is sending Philippe de Croisset a cheque for 51,000 francs.
