"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)
Isn't there a problem here, The Audience opening with Helen Mirren in Spring 2015 and reported today by Riedel that Skylight with Bill Nighy, both are directed by Stephen Daltry, how can one director do two plays at once?
Isn't that what assistants are for? Plus these are both transfers, and I assume that means there isn't really a ton of directing left to do.
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.
