Theodore von Eltz: Revue Producer

Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Maisie aka Frostbite : [Backstage at the final performance of "Melodies of 1914" the producer is handing out pay envelopes to the chorus]  Ooooh! I'll be missing you next Saturday night, Pop!

  Revue Producer : And I'll be missing you, too, Miss Maisie.

  Maisie aka Frostbite : [Taking her pay envelope]  Yeah, but you won't be missing this, and I will. Guess I shouldn't kick. Two weeks is a long run these days.

  [She heads for her dressing room] 

  Maisie aka Frostbite : C'mon Suzy, let's get dressed.

  Suzanne 'Suzy' Trent : Alright Maisie, I'll be right with ya.

  Chorus Girl : [to Suzy, crying]  But it's your whole week's salary, Suzy. I won't take it. You can't afford it!

  Suzanne 'Suzy' Trent : Don't you worry about me; blondes never go broke. Being a brunette, you wouldn't understand that. But you very seldom catch a blonde in financial trouble. Besides, I've got a rich uncle.

  Chorus Girl : But you never told me you had any relatives in London.

  Suzanne 'Suzy' Trent : I haven't got any relatives anywhere, but I've got a rich uncle. Now monkey, you take that.

• Suzanne 'Suzy' Trent : Do you suppose you could give me some lines in the show?

  Revue Producer : [Looking her over]  You've got some rather nice lines now.

  Suzanne 'Suzy' Trent : I mean... would you let me play a small part?

  Revue Producer : That depends upon how big a part you're willing to let me play.

  Suzanne 'Suzy' Trent : Oh, well, what time should I report tomorrow?

  Revue Producer : [Making a move]  Tomorrow? You're having dinner with me tonight.

  Suzanne 'Suzy' Trent : [Resisting]  You're mistaken about dinner. I was speaking of rehearsals.

  Revue Producer : Well, in that case, perhaps you're mistaken about rehearsals. I... I don't think you want to be, uh, the type.
