Later Than They Thought
"THE discussion by W. S. Wauchop, Richard Campion and W. J. Mountjoy, Jr., on the recent tour of the Stratford Company turned out to be a paean of thanksgiving rather than a _ postmortem, and provided a most warming footnote to what had been for many an outstanding dramatic experience (the warmth was helped, correspondents please note, by the almost unselfconscious use of Bill, Dick and Joey by the three speakers). Unfortunately, the casiness of the discussion was destroyed towards the end by the necessity to cram into a breathless final summary those tributes that could not be left unsaid. Listeners, finding themselves so precipitately it seemed on the wrong side of 8.30’s iron curtain, bit back their expressions of chagrin and tried to think kindly of the poribly equal number of listeners panting after the cooling streams presently to be provided by Roy Hill’s Madrigal Group.
