Unfortunately
he
was
away
.
But
he
was
coming
back
for
the
dress
-
rehearsal
and
the
first
night
;
he
had
not
missed
these
occasions
for
twenty
years
,
and
they
had
always
had
supper
together
after
the
dress
-
rehearsal
.
Michael
would
remain
in
the
theatre
,
busy
with
the
lights
and
so
on
,
so
that
they
would
be
alone
.
They
would
be
able
to
have
a
good
talk
.
She
studied
her
part
.
Julia
did
not
deliberately
create
the
character
she
was
going
to
act
by
observation
;
she
had
a
knack
of
getting
into
the
shoes
of
the
woman
she
had
to
portray
so
that
she
thought
with
her
mind
and
felt
with
her
senses
.
Her
intuition
suggested
to
her
a
hundred
small
touches
that
afterwards
amazed
people
by
their
verisimilitude
;
*
but
when
they
asked
her
where
she
had
got
them
she
could
not
say
.
Now
she
wanted
to
show
the
courageous
yet
uneasy
breeziness
of
the
Mrs
.
Marten
who
played
golf
and
could
talk
to
a
man
like
one
good
chap
to
another
and
yet
,
essentially
a
respectable
,
middle
-
class
woman
,
hankered
for
the
security
of
the
marriage
state
.
Michael
never
liked
to
have
a
crowd
at
a
dress
-
rehearsal
,
*
and
this
time
,
anxious
to
keep
the
secret
of
the
play
till
the
first
night
,
he
had
admitted
besides
Charles
only
the
people
,
photographers
and
dressmakers
,
whose
presence
was
necessary
.
Julia
spared
herself
.
She
had
no
intention
of
giving
all
she
had
to
give
till
the
first
night
.
It
was
enough
if
her
performance
was
adequate
.
Under
Michael
’
s
business
-
like
direction
everything
went
off
without
a
hitch
,
and
by
ten
o
’
clock
Julia
and
Charles
were
sitting
in
the
Grill
Room
of
the
Savoy
.
The
first
thing
she
asked
him
was
what
he
thought
of
Avice
Crichton
.
"
Not
at
all
bad
and
wonderfully
pretty
.
She
really
looked
lovely
in
that
second
-
act
dress
.
"
"
I
’
m
not
going
to
wear
the
dress
I
wore
in
the
second
act
.
Charley
Deverill
has
made
me
another
.
"
He
did
not
see
the
slightly
humorous
glance
she
gave
him
,
and
if
he
had
would
not
have
guessed
what
it
meant
.
Michael
,
having
taken
Julia
’
s
advice
,
had
gone
to
a
good
deal
of
trouble
with
Avice
.
He
had
rehearsed
her
by
herself
upstairs
in
his
private
room
and
had
given
her
every
intonation
and
every
gesture
.
He
had
also
,
Julia
had
good
reason
to
believe
,
lunched
with
her
several
times
and
taken
her
out
to
supper
.
The
result
of
all
this
was
that
she
was
playing
the
part
uncommonly
well
.
Michael
rubbed
his
hands
.
"
I
’
m
very
pleased
with
her
.
I
think
she
’
ll
make
quite
a
hit
.
I
’
ve
half
a
mind
to
give
her
a
contract
.
"
"
I
wouldn
’
t
,
"
said
Julia
.
"
Not
till
after
the
first
night
.
You
can
never
really
tell
how
a
performance
is
going
to
pan
out
till
you
’
ve
got
an
audience
.
