Scope and content
Autograph letter to Jack Minster, with compliments slip forwarding it to Beaton. Thanks Minster for sending Beaton's play, and for thinking of him to direct it. Will read it very soon. Is at the stage of dress rehearsal for two plays simultaneously. Read the play seven years ago so must refresh his memories of it. Will get back at Whitsun week-end and phone Minster on the following Tuesday. Is working for the television over the summer, then will be busy with The Ring at Covent Garden in Sept-Oct and the Wexford festival until 1 Nov. Will confirm precise dates on his return.
