Photocopy of a letter from 173 Riverside Drive, Apt. 16C, New York City, N.Y. 10024 - In a long letter, explains that he has received a videotape of the production in Tokyo and wishes to share his concerns. He picks out certain areas of concern before discussing the end of the play as the reverse of what he intended. Admires the theatrical quality of the work, and discusses the future, that it should go to the National again in the U.K., but suggests that a Japanese language version of the play would suite populations along the west coast of the United States.
