Beschreibung:

On Lee Radziwill's debut in The Philadelphia Story Chicago, 1967 (RADZIWILL, Caroline Lee). Group of five Western Union telegrams from various correspondents including Edith Beale, Irene Selznick, Jerry Robbins, Jayne and Charles Wrightsman and Janet Norton Lee Bouvier, all addressed to Lee Radziwill , various places, 19 - 23 June 1967. Five pages, 5.5 x 8.5 in. (several tape remnants at margins, minor marginal wear and losses to several corners). Friends and family offer their support for Lee Radziwill’s stage debut. By most accounts, it was Truman Capote who convinced Lee to take to the stage. Although her appearance in The Philadelphia Story at Chicago's Ivanhoe Theatre drew throngs of onlookers, theatrical critics were unimpressed, but family and friends offered their encouragement nevertheless. Lee’s Aunt Edie Beale (aka “Big Edie”) wrote, “DEAREST LEE - DON’T READ THE NOTICES AND KEEP GOING” while her mother Janet wired that she was, “...VERY PROUD OF GOOD REVIEWS AND GREAT PERSONAL REPORTS…” Reflecting upon the experience in her memoir, Happy Times , Radziwill suspected some of the negative "reviews had been written in advance," but she "never had any regrets." (p. 58).
