Summary
Addressing her "Ma chère Amie," Terrasse writes that he received her letter and had wanted to visit her last Tuesday but the rehearsals for [the revival of] Ubu roi and a production that will take place in a week kept him from doing so. Asking her if she has time tomorrow, Saturday at 8 o'clock, she should come to Gémier's place at the Théâtre Antoine - that he will speak to her before or after - or next Tuesday around 6. Signing off, "Votre tout devoué, Claude Terrasse."
