Letter from Barrie McBride
SHAF/B/5/1/10 · Item · 14 July 1964
Part of Papers of Sir Peter Shaffer

Enjoyed the play last week, and his friend Catherine Robins was inspired by the use of movement and mime; found the history of the play accurate but points out that Atahuallpa would not have been chained during his imprisonment; cites the accompanying pamphlet, 'Covenant for Conquest, The Story of Pizarro and Atahuallpa' by George Simpson, Lima, 1961.
