Upon Being Introduced To King George V Woods Addressed The Monarch Who Was Older Than Him As "Kid" And Took The Opportunity To Promote One Of His Productions Declaring It To Be "A Regular Show".

When Woods Staged The Sheldon Davis Comedy Try And Get It In August 1943 Critics Expressed Hope That It Would Revive His Flagging Career But It Closed In Less Than A Week. It Was His Final Production. Although Woods Continued To Read Scripts And Attempt To Generate Interest He Was Unable To Stage Any Productions After 1943.
