threatening to do so for another two

proceeded to become an idiot, all
though l did not reach the blithering
stage really, because my talents in the

day I hope to play real parts in real
plays as real human being. Then
l want you to discover me as a rising
young actor. If that time comes
am perfectly willing to Change my
