Letter (4+ p.) |
| Content Summary: |
He hopes the cares of management do not trouble Laurence. He is pluckily pushing on but cannot offer much advice as he has little faith in the venture. He explained all that to Mr Collier(?) and hoped Laurence would close the tour. He thinks the managers could have been satisfied but it is too late. All management requires capital and without backers it is not wise to make engagements. Laurence's early "starring" is not the way to make good actors. It is better first to study one's art with capable and better actors. Irving followed that course and old actors would agree with it. Harry told him how well Laurence was when he had seen him in Birmingham, and he was glad to get his message. D.L. is not for the multitude. Not one in a thousand has ever read the book. |

On Laurence's disastrous provincial tour of 'Uncle Silas'. The Drury Lane production was probably one in Eleanora Duse's season, which began on 3rd June. |
