I got a frantic notion at the Comedy Theatre... that you were in the house... Well, it was a false alarm: you were not there. (B. Shaw, ‘Ellen Terry and Bernard Shaw. A Correspondence’, Letter to E. Terry, 11 June, 1897) — Когда я был в Театре комедии, мне вдруг пришла в голову безумная мысль, что Вы где-то здесь, в театре. Впрочем, это была ложная тревога: Вас не было на спектакле.
