“I won’t be,” Peggy said. “I know that it was just meant for us, and I mean to make sure that we get it!”
Connie let the girls in, and while they were saying hello to her and the others, the buzzer announced the arrival of Tom Galen and Mona Downs.
“I’m so glad everyone’s here at once!” Peggy said. “We’re so full of news that if we had to wait for anyone, I think we’d burst!”
“Don’t tell us you’ve found a theater!” Randy exclaimed.
“I will tell you,” Peggy answered, “because we did!”
“What’s wrong with it?” Mal asked.
“Where is it?” Connie said at the same time.
“And how much is it?” Randy put in, in the same instant.
“Whoa! One at a time!” Peggy protested. “If everybody will get settled and hold the questions for a few minutes, I’ll tell you all about it. Now,” she said, when the players were seated in expectant attitudes, “now I’ll tell you everything you want to know. It’s called Mason’s Starlight Theater; it’s on the top floor of a loft in the market area southwest of Greenwich Village; we don’t know the rent; it’s a perfect theater, just the right size, and—.”
“I feel a but coming, rather than an and,” Randy said.
