CRITICS AND CAMERAS
Siit,—Your Strix should check his facts before printing a damaging statement that the drama- tic critic of the Daily Express "having pre- sumably seen I An a Camera at Brighton, rather disingenuously pretended he had been at Monday's performance and reviewed it at length on Tuesday morning."
A telephone call to this office would have produced the facts: we bought tickets for our critic on Monday night because it was the first public performance of the play. Although the proceeds were for charity, tickets were on sale to all who came at the box office.
It is the intention of the Daily Express always to review plays at their first public performance and not on a night selected by the theatre managers.—Yours faithfully, The Daily Express, Fleet Street
