The Lantz Office, 200 West 57th Street, Suite 503, New York, NY 10019 - Conveys a message written by Peter on 30 Oct. 2002, thanking him for the copy of 'The Z Thing' with its kind dedication to him and his play about another great composer; was dismayed to see the play has to do with the life and death of Tchaikovsky, which he has been working on for over six years; has done immense work to get it right, has done several elaborate re-writes, the first dating back to 1996, with research that preceded that; does not feel he can read the play, and thinks it best to remain ignorant of his work, and returns the play with his apologies. Lantz encloses a postscript in Peter's hand, which he believes should go to Wood as written.
