OLD VIC SEASON
Sir,-When the Old Vic Company left England for Australia it was understood that a visit to New Zealand would also be made. Can you tell me, please, if this visit is to be, or not? The Australian papers and radio have made much of the company and its famous principals, and many New Zealanders are eagerly awaiting definite news of their tour here. For some time now there have been tumours to the effect that, owing to shipping difficulties, this latter tour is off. Some months ago, I remember reading that an "advance" manager for the company was in the country, but it is since then that the rumours have been spreading. There will be many provincial theatrelovers like myself who will have to make arrangements a long time in advance to attend the plays, so, if it is pdssible, could you put us out of our misery as regards the big question, and also inform us if there are any dates and places fixed yet for the performances? PLAY GIRL (Blenheim). (We are advised that the Australian season has been extended. No further information was available when we went to press,--Ed. )
