Typescript letter signed to Beaton, from the Royal Opera House, London. Is told that Beaton is arriving this week from America. They are to do a gala performance for the Shah of Persia on 7th May. Would like Beaton to do the designing job and a cover for the programme. The fee is not high but there will be a good deal of publicity. They would be very pleased if he could help. The Queen and other members of the royal family will be among the audience. 3p; paper. |
