...need bow to no theatre anywhere on the matter of a stage itself. The "modified Elizabethan" set that Robert O'Hearn had designed in Sanders has classic beauty. Its four distinct staging levels and its simple lines provide infinitely various opportunities for blocking, for lighting effects, and for wonderful fadeout exits. And O'Hearn has not only made the set beautiful and functional; he has also blended it in perfectly as an integral part of Sanders Theatre.

When she finally cuddles, beneath the covers, the camera moves in for a gulping closeup. Nancy murmurs "good night" but makes it sound like an invitation marked R.S.V.P. Her eyes close, her lips part gently and she drifts off to slumberland to fadeout music and a cartoon of fence-jumping sheep...

...this horseplay, Raleigh boldly kicks up his heels. For this the Queen could hand Sir Walter his head, but by this time she is so encumbered with other worries that she just gives him a ship and his lady and tells them to get the hell out of town. Fadeout: Raleigh, his arm around Beth, sets sail for America to get his face on a million tobacco cans; back at the palace Queen Elizabeth, old and dejected carries...
