Julia
had
with
decision
turned
down
the
American
offer
before
ever
she
mentioned
it
to
Tom
;
their
play
was
playing
to
very
good
business
.
But
one
of
those
inexplicable
slumps
that
occasionally
affect
the
theatre
now
swept
over
London
and
the
takings
suddenly
dropped
.
It
looked
as
though
they
would
not
be
able
to
carry
on
long
after
Easter
.
They
had
a
new
play
on
which
they
set
great
hopes
.
It
was
called
Nowadays
,
and
the
intention
had
been
to
produce
it
early
in
the
autumn
.
It
had
a
great
part
for
Julia
and
the
advantage
of
one
that
well
suited
Michael
.
It
was
the
sort
of
play
that
might
easily
run
a
year
.
Michael
did
not
much
like
the
idea
of
producing
it
in
May
,
with
the
summer
coming
on
,
but
there
seemed
no
help
for
it
and
he
began
looking
about
for
a
cast
.
One
afternoon
,
during
the
interval
at
a
matinee
,
Evie
brought
a
note
in
to
Julia
.
She
was
surprised
to
see
Roger
’
s
handwriting
.

DEAR
MOTHER
,
This
is
to
introduce
to
you
Miss
Joan
Denver
who
I
talked
to
you
about
.
She
’
s
awfully
keen
on
getting
in
the
Siddons
Theatre
and
would
be
quite
satisfied
with
an
understudy
however
small
.
Your
affectionate
son
,
ROGER

Julia
smiled
at
the
formal
way
in
which
he
wrote
;
she
was
tickled
because
he
was
so
grown
up
as
to
try
to
get
jobs
for
his
girl
friends
.
Then
she
suddenly
remembered
who
Joan
Denver
was
.
Joan
and
Jill
.
She
was
the
girl
who
had
seduced
poor
Roger
.
Her
face
went
grim
.
But
she
was
curious
to
see
her
.
"
Is
George
there
?
"
George
was
the
doorkeeper
.
Evie
nodded
and
opened
the
door
.
"
George
.
