An apologetic TYPED LETTER SIGNED by the American Theater Producer ROGER L. STEVENS as Chairman of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts apologizing to Jean Dalrymple who was apparently upset about being left out of the loop in the production of a Revival.

Responding to his friend City Center producer and ANTA's executive director Jean Dalrymple who was upset at being left out of the loop in decisions made in staging a revival of "On Your Toes". Stevens begins by saying that "I am distressed by your letter. I had no intention of upsetting you." He goes on to describe how the project had "started off on a very small scale and somehow ballooned into a monster." Though most of the money was put up by the Kennedy Center ANTA the American National Theater and Academy still had substantial funding involved. He explains that "From the beginning we ran into a beehive of problems not the least of which was Makarova's shocking injury; and with it all we never really sat down and thought very clearly about the relation of ANTA and the Kennedy Canter." To appease her Stevens hopes to have her attend the first preview with him and offer her opinion. ".the first preview is on Tuesday March 1 and I very much hope that you will attend that with me and Delly and give us your opinion." Signed "Roger". Folded for mailing else fine. <p>The ballerina Natalia Makarova was injured by falling scenery during a performance of "On Your Toes" and was replaced in the role by Valentina Kozlova. The Virginia Theater opening was delayed and re-scheduled for March 6. Delly to whom Stevens refers is Alfred de Liagre the executive producer for ANTA.<p>Roger L. Stevens 1910-1998 was an American theatrical producer arts administrator and real estate executive.

He became known for introducing plays by such adventurous writers as Harold Pinter Arthur Kopit and Tom Stoppard.<p>Jean Dalrymple 1902-1998 was the dynamic producer and director of theater and light-opera at Manhattan's City Center. Dalrymple began her career in vaudeville appearing with James Cagney and Cary Grant in the early 1930s. She was a founding member of the American Theatre Wing the theatre service organization. She worked over the years as a personal manager for the likes of Leopold Stokowski Mary Martin Jose Iturbi Andre Kostelanetz Nathan Milstein and Lily Pons. She began her work at City Center with its founding in 1943 serving as a board member and publicist. Her productions there from the 1940s through the 1960s were a revitalizing influence on the whole New York theatre scene.
