...table full of diners at Sardi's theatrical restaurant. And they had to get actors who could speak Playwright Anderson's semi-versified lines with conviction. Stanley Ridges is a particularly happy choice for the character of hard bitten Lucifer Tench. No less happy is the casting of Margalo Gillmore as the full-blown, romantic Mary Philipse. As Washington, Philip Merivale is close to perfect. Mr. Merivale is the greatest cloak-swinger on the U. S. stage. He swung one in The Road to Rome (1927-28).

But the job is finally done very adroitly...

I've been a little tired this week and the person who is to blame is Miss Margalo Gilmore, owing to the fact that she has so many friends here. We played the piano and sang and in no time it was much too late. . . . Like all my parties, everyone just sat on the floor and talked-the reason being that there never seem to be enough chairs...
...Forty-Seven Club of Cambridge is to give a tea this afternoon at four o'clock in the Alumnae Room of Fay House at Radcliffe in honor of Miss Margalo Gilmore and Mr. Lealie Howard, stars of the production "Berkeley Square" now playing in Boston. All members of the Harvard Dramatic Club have been invited to attend...
