Typewritten letter from Alice McClanahan

Mr. Orson Welles
Mercury Theatre of the Air

My dear Mr. Welles:
I am writing you my opinion
of your Martian play. In view of the
storm of adverse criticism it has re-
ceived, you may be interested to know
it was also much enjoyed. I thought
both the play itself and the acting
were exceedingly well done. They made
superb entertainment. Anyone who can
describe a gas attack so realistically
that people smell the gas, is an art-
ist and deserves to succeed.
My best wishes for that success.
Sincerely,
Alice McClanahan
Alice McClanahan
