One night I was informed on arrival that the heavy curtain, which was worked by hydraulic power, had refused to act, the water-main had burst somewhere in Piccadilly, and it affected several theatres. I was told that I should have to walk off after I had finished my sketch, which was rather 148 RUTLAND BARRINGTON awkward, as I was supposed to fall dead. All they could do to help me was to turn all lights down completely, and even then two of the stage hands must have thought I had failed to und...erstand the position, as they came on and helped me up, one of them saying, "You've got to get up and go off, guv'nor." There was a laugh, but not so great a one as I feared.
The programme occasionally got overcrowded as to length, and there was tremendous trouble in get- ting some of the artists to curtail their " turns," and one night, to my dismay, the stage manager came to me on my arrival with " Mr. Stoll's compliments, and could you oblige him by singing one verse of your song?" This mutilation struck me as so ex- traordinary and also useless that I said I would much rather cut the whole number.
