After all, I’m trying for a part, too.” Peggy’s friend and housemate, Amy Preston, smiled in agreement and said, “It’s not an easy business, honey, is it? But the ones I feel sorriest for Greta nodded decisively. “If you can act, you’re made for it,” she said. “That’s just what Peggy said!” , Paula?” asked Peggy. “I think it’s wonderful! I hope more than ever that Peggy stole a glance through the doors to the theater. darkened part of the house and prepared for what Peggy could only think of as their ordeal. Afterward, as Peggy, Amy, Paula, and Greta sat at a table in a nearby coffeehouse waiting for Mal and Randy to join them, each was sure that she had been when they had discovered a theater. It would not be easy for him to consider Peggy for an acting role, and had worked with him before, as a general assistant, one another, or sat on the few folding chairs trying said mournfully. “You were perfect. And so was Paula. As for me....” Her voice trailed off in despair. “I don’t know how you can say that, Greta,” Paula put in. “I know you were the best in your part, and nobody even came close to Peggy.

In a businesslike manner, they settled themselves at a table near the windows, spread out scripts and pads and pencils, and prepared for the chore that faced them. Amy, who was there to help the boys by acting as secretary for the occasion, wished Peggy good luck, and joined the boys at the 5 Four men separated themselves from the crowd and approached the table. Peggy watched with interest as Mal and Randy looked them over, murmured for leading man types, late twenties or early thirties, tall and athletic. As six tall, athletic, handsome young men came forward, Peggy felt that she just couldn’t stand watching the casting interviews any I can get some kind of supporting role in this play, but I don’t think I’m ready for anything big yet. By the way, my name is Peggy Lane. What’s yours?” 6 “I’m Paula Andrews,” the girl answered, “and maybe I’m shooting too high, but I’m trying out for the female lead. I hope I have a chance for it.” “Oh, I hope you’re right!” Paula said with animation. “And I hope you get a part, too. I have a feeling that you’re going to bring me good luck!” “The one who needs luck is me, I’m afraid,” Peggy Not wanting to press Paula further, and feeling that perhaps she had asked too personal a question on such short acquaintance, Peggy reluctantly stood The men left, after being given their scripts, and though they chatted amiably with one another, Peggy was sure that each was casting rather hostile looks toward others who were trying for the same for this role that he had the most applicants. More than twenty girls came forward when the announcement was made, and Peggy thought that she had never seen so many striking and beautiful faces and figures. It was not going to be easy for Mal to make a choice. As Paula, her new friend, went forward to join the others, Peggy whispered a word of encouragement, then stood to one side to watch. expression hardly varied as he spoke to each one, but Peggy thought she saw the ghost of a smile cross his face when he spoke to Paula Andrews. Another review of the remaining girls eliminated a few more. Finally, there were only four left, Paula and asked them to be at the Penthouse Theater on Saturday at noon. Paula returned to Peggy with eyes shining. “Oh, Peggy! I think you were right! I just know I’m going to get the part! I know it!” 10 hear you read!” Then, with a smile of farewell, Peggy turned her attention to the “career woman, early thirties” classification that Mal had called for next.

Only four actresses came forward, and Mal, with type, he gave them all scripts and asked them to come to the theater. Then he called for “character ingénues” and Peggy joined seven other girls in the Peggy with complete lack of recognition. He gently eliminated three of them on the basis of hair coloring, height or general type. Another, curiously given scripts and told to come to the theater on Saturday. Feeling lightheaded and giddy, Peggy settled herself on one of the folding chairs that lined the back wall, and waited for Mal, Randy, and Amy Peggy Lane would be discovered! 12 Peggy watched the remaining actors try for the role, and made mental notes of which ones were possible, which probable, and which stood no chance at each other, and all were imitations of the early acting style of Marlon Brando. They seemed to forget, Peggy thought, that Brando’s style developed treated with impersonal courtesy by Mal, and each left looking sure that the part was his. Peggy was they learned that they had not been selected. The door at the back of the theater opened quietly, and Peggy, turning around in her seat, saw a few of the actresses entering. They quietly found seats in the rear and settled down to await their turn. “I think I’ll go back there with the girls,” Peggy As she went up the aisle as unobtrusively as possible, Peggy glanced at the actresses who had just come in. She recognized a few of their faces from the casting call of three days ago, but did not see her Peggy turned in surprise to find herself greeted with a broad grin and a quick companionable kiss. “Greta!” she cried. “What are you doing here?” “Come on out to the lobby, and I’ll tell you,” Greta Variety very carefully,” Greta said. “ Over the Hill opened in New and an agent saw me and said he thought I was good, so maybe I’m not any the worse for the experience.” At that moment, Peggy saw Paula Andrews enter the lobby, and she motioned to her to join them. “Greta, this is Paula Andrews.

I haven’t seen Greta for weeks—she’s been out of town with a play—and I’m just getting over being stunned at seeing her now.” “Peggy tactfully neglected to mention that the play flopped,” Greta laughed, “and now I’m back in town without a job.
