Part of Papers of Sir Peter Shaffer

Is glad to hear film is going ahead and that he likes Toronto; Peter's father has decided against an operation; went to 'Equus' again with a young friend and had Alec McCowen, Alan Bates and [Leroy? S.] to supper later.
Note from Michael Powell

Part of Papers of Sir Peter Shaffer

Flat 2, 8 Melbury Road, W.14. - Admires 'Equus': the communication between author-actor-audience was complete; compares it to the great Greek plays in theme, dignity, and [catharsis]; Alec MacOwen [McCowen] was excellent and John Dexter surpassed himself.
