Dearest Emily,

ICocktail Party, TheTSE rewriting;c6 am hoping that the pressure of the play will relax in a couple of week’s time. IBrowne, Elliott Martin1949 Edinburgh Cocktail Party;e7communciates Alec Guinness's enthusiasm;a6 have just completed re-writing of Act III which Martin wants tomorrow, to make up a full text which he is having copied in connection with the casting. AllGuinness, Aleckeen on Cocktail Party;a4 I have heard from him so far is that Alex Guinness – an actor of whom I have always had a high opinion – is interested in one of the parts. Act III is going to put me into some difficulty: thereBrowne, Henzie (née Raeburn)as Cocktail Party understudy;b4 is a very small part, for the nurse-secretary of a doctor, with a dozen perfectly straight lines purely for directing the audience, which I think he will want to give to Henzie. Now, although Henzie does not exactly look the part, I shouldn’t mind her having it; but I am afraid he would want to take the opportunity of using her as an understudy for one of the three women’s parts, all important ones, and for all of which she is completely unsuited. It is tactless of Martin to want to put her into any play he produces; but one understands the domestic situation only too painfully clearly. I have made some sacrifices for Martin already over this play: I hope I shall not find myself in a very trying position.

Of course, there are a number of alterations to make in the text still, mainly in the mechanics of the play. For instance, as the man’s wife is absent from the first party (that is part of the plot) and as I have changed the scene from a house, presumably provided with a servant or two, to a flat with no domestic, the snacks which he provides have all to be what can be got out of tins – such as olives, nuts, and potato crisps. I find that I could have little sausages (the kind with toothpicks in them) out of tins, but only if the host had some friend in America to send them to him, and that is too complicated. My second party is much easier to manage, because I have it provided by a caterer who sends two men.

I hope to get most of these details right in the next two weeks, and then Martin can have the final text (final subject to alteration in rehearsal) duplicated. I will ask him to have a few extra copies made for me, so that I can send you one. So far I have done the typing myself, and one doesn’t want to make several copies of a text so long as it is still subject to much alteration.

TheCocktail Party, The1949 Edinburgh Festival production;d1production schedule;a3 rehearsals begin on July 25, and will all have to be in London, asLycaeum Theatre, Edinburgh;a1 the Lycaeum [sc. Lyceum] Theatre in Edinburgh, he tells me, will not be available until the Sunday before the opening Monday. I shall go up on the 20th to attend the last rehearsal in Edinburgh.

SoEliot, Marion Cushing (TSE's sister)1949 visit to England with Dodo;g1;a4 ISmith, Theodora ('Dodo') Eliot (TSE's niece)1949 visit to England;d1;a3 hope to have a couple of weeks without any pressure or work, before Marion and Theodora arrive on June 22nd.

WhenKrauss, Sophie M.;a8 you go to Seattle, will you stay with Mrs. Kraus [sc. Krauss]? I suppose you have other friends there too; and I hope it means a lovely climate and outdoor diversions. That will be more of a change than you have had for some years now; but I should think it would be almost as expensive to go to Seattle as to come to Europe! WhatPerkinses, the;n3 change if any is there in the health of either of the Perkins’s?

Withtravels, trips and plansTSE's October–November 1949 trip to Germany;g8possible itinerary;a2 all I have in front of me, I have to look forward to the end of the year – after Edinburgh and Germany and Brussels: I suppose I shall certainly be sent to Berlin and Vienna now, for it does not look as if there would be any serious trouble this year – and then I shall undertake no writing for a couple of months. Intravels, trips and plansTSE's 1950 visit to America;h2and TSE's possible Chicago post;a1 the winter I must begin to prepare more American lectures; itUniversity of Chicago'The Aims of Education' being prepared for;a2 looks as if I should come in October and lecture in Chicago. (It will really be more satisfactory, I think, to spend a few weeks lecturing in Chicago and earn enough money for a few weeks in Boston, thanPrinceton University;e6 to go to Princeton as I did with no lectures to give but the obligation to stop in Princeton).

You have now only a month more, I think, before the end of the school year. So it is not too soon to let me know, when you next write, what are the principal dates – when you leave (but you have already said that you must be out of your house by June 1st, so I need to know at once what your address will be – I don’t want any more letters getting lost.

I suppose you are in the middle of your play now. I want to know how it goes.

With much love
Tom.
