<P class=MsoNormal>They are David Hare’s words—I have the screenplay & recently a friend had actually asked me the same question so I looked. But of course, given the internet, they will become Woolf’s words anyway, whatever we say!!! I saw them on a handout at one of the community forums at the conference last week, for example…<?xml:namespace prefix = o /><o:p></o:p></P>
