Scope and content
Photocopy of a letter dated 3 Feb. [1980] with a copy of a typescript letter to the Editor of 'The Sunday Times' dated 4 Feb. 1980 from Dame Janet Baker, each page headed "C. C. Peter Shaffer 6th February '80". She disapproves of the wording of the thumbnail sketch in the arts guide, with its negative review of 'Amadeus' [by James Fenton]; has seen [Schnitzler's] 'Undiscovered Country'; she spends much time in the theatre as she learns so much from actors, admires Paul Schofield [Scofield].
