PEGGY PLAYS OFF-BROADWAY in three different drafts since it started. Peggy’s and each time she brought a draft home, I got to read it. So I’m not at a disadvantage.” “it doesn’t matter how good these people are most of them just haven’t got a chance. I can’t help feeling Peggy. 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 “That’s just what Peggy said!” Peggy stole a glance through the doors to the theater. Peggy nodded thoughtfully, and reflected that it Peggy could only think of as their ordeal. easy for him to consider Peggy for an acting role, and to do so completely without bias. It would not be a question of playing favorites, Peggy knew, but quite the reverse. Mal’s sense of fair play would make him bend over backward to keep from giving favors to his friends. If she was to get a role in this new production, she would really have to work for it. “You have a lot more talent than judgment,” Greta said mournfully. “You were perfect. And so was Paula. As for me....” Her voice trailed off in despair. And if it was difficult for Mal, she thought, it was mile off!” nobody even came close to Peggy. But I’ve never she assured herself, but they had gone on dates together with a regularity that was a little more than casual and, whatever his feelings were for her, she was sure that they were more complicated than Mal’s. for her friendship with him was of a different sort than with Mal. Mal was just a friend—a good one, things were different. There was nothing “serious,” “Oh, they won’t be doing readings today,” Peggy All at the same time, the girls started to reassure him and tell him how good the play was, and how badly the actors, including themselves, had handled “They won’t go back to the rejects,” Peggy explained, “... so, you see,” Peggy concluded, “we were “It seems kind of unfair, doesn’t it, to be eliminated just because you’re not the right physical type,” Amy said, “but I can understand it. They have to start somewhere, and I guess that’s as good a place as any.” Then she smiled and added, “I guess I’m just feeling sorry for myself, because Mal told me Peggy nodded sympathetically. “But it wasn’t just She broadened her slight, soft accent until it sounded like something you could spread on hot cornbread, Amy and Peggy. In a businesslike manner, they settled and approached the table. Peggy watched with interest 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 longer. It reminded her too much of the livestock shows she had attended as a youngster in her home it either?” The girl smiled in understanding. “It always upsets me,” she replied, “but it’s something we simply have to learn to live with. At least until we get well-known, Peggy said. Peggy looked carefully at her new friend, at the that shone from her large, widely placed green eyes. Her rather long face was saved from severity by a soft halo of red-brown hair, the whole effect being an appealing combination of strength and feminine softness. “I think you do have a chance,” Peggy said. “In “The one who needs luck is me, I’m afraid,” Peggy and I agreed that if I didn’t show signs of success before the year was up, I’d come home and go back “I don’t know how you can say that, Greta,” Paula put in. “I know you were the best in your part, and on such short acquaintance, Peggy reluctantly stood comedian than any man in the world. Peggy 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 parts. Keeping friendships in the theater was not an easy thing, she thought, particularly for people of similar physical types! was made, and Peggy thought that she had never seen so many striking and beautiful faces and one, but Peggy thought she saw the ghost of a smile Peggy! I think you were right! I just know I’m going “Don’t count too much on it,” Peggy cautioned, “or you may be too bitterly disappointed if you don’t get it. But,” she added, enthusiastically violating her Then, with a smile of farewell, Peggy turned her that Mal had called for next. Once that was out of the way, she knew it would be her turn. This time, there were not so many applicants and Peggy remembered Randy telling her that this Peggy with complete lack of recognition. He gently 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 to finish so she could join them for coffee. 11 Scarcely noticing the rest of the proceedings, she thought only about the coming readings. She was so familiar with the play that she knew she had an advantage, perhaps unfairly, over the other two girls. She had watched the script grow from its first rough draft to the finished text now in her hands, and had discussed it with Randy through each revision. She knew she could play the part in fact, she suspected secretly that Randy had written it for her, and the thought made her blush. Still, it would not be easy, she knew. Mal’s sense of fairness and his absolute devotion to the play above everything else would keep him from making up his mind in advance. But despite this knowledge, she could not help looking ahead—all the way ahead—to the restless stir of the opening-night audience out front, the last-minute preparations backstage, the bright, hot lights and the smell of make-up and scenery paint as she Peggy Lane would be discovered! his lines. Peggy knew, after the first few words, that he would not do. He had somehow completely the whole sequence with no visible sign of impatience and, when the actor was through, said, “Thank you. We’ll let you know our decision in a day not quite on target, Peggy thought. He seemed to be playing the part for laughs, and although there were some comic values to be extracted from the role, it polite, invariable formula, “Thank you. We’ll let you know our decision in a day or two,” and called for the next reading. Peggy watched the remaining actors try for the from the roles he had to play, and that as he got other roles, he showed other facets of a rounded talent. It made her angry that some actors thought they could get ahead in a creative field by being imitative. Each actor, no matter how good or how bad, was treated with impersonal courtesy by Mal, and each left looking sure that the part was his. Peggy was glad that she would not have to see their faces when they learned that they had not been selected. most of them have tremendous egos to protect them from ever finding out—or even thinking—otherwise!” Peggy glanced at the actresses who had just entered the theater as Peggy was leaving and, as she passed, one reached out and grabbed her arm. Peggy turned in surprise to find herself greeted with a broad grin and a quick companionable kiss. “Oh, I’m so sorry,” Peggy said. “And it was a real chance for you, wasn’t it?” “Not really,” Greta said. “The part wasn’t too good, and I’d just as soon not be in a disaster. Anyway, it gave me a chance to work for a few weeks, At that moment, Peggy saw Paula Andrews enter “Peggy tactfully neglected to mention that the play flopped,” Greta laughed, “and now I’m back in town without a job.
