Svetlov is a great theatre-goer. So once after the talks he asked Mr. Dunn:
Svetlov: What is on at London theatres now?
Dunn: _________. The Covent Garden Theatre is famous for opera and ballet performances with the best English singers, ballerinas and ballet-dancers. The National Theatre shows the best in the world drama. Some theatres put on modern plays and at others you can sometimes enjoy good musicals, folk songs concerts or concerts of “pop” music.
Svetlov: Mr. Dunn. I’ve heard very much about the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. It’s in Stratford-on-Avon, isn’t it?
Dunn: Right. But in 1960 the Royal Shakespeare Company also began to perform at the Aldwych Theatre in London where they put on both classical and new plays.
Svetlov: Have you seen any performances on the stage of the Stratford Theatre?
Dunn: Oh yes. As a matter of fact my wife and I were there a couple of months ago and saw “Othello”.
Svetlov: What did you think of it?
Dunn: It was an excellent performance. The cast was very good, except for the actress who played the part of Desdemona. __________.
Svetlov: What was wrong with her performance?
Dunn: Well, _________. During the interval everyone was saying that.
Svetlov: How about the actor who played the part of Othello?
Dunn: Oh, his performance was very convincing and dramatic. There were seven or eight curtain calls for him, when the performance was over.
Svetlov: There was a full house, I believe.
Dunn: Yes, indeed! ________. Anyway, Mr.Svetlov, I recommend you to go and see some play at the Aldwych Theatre. ________.
Svetlov: This sounds a good idea.
