I HATE YOU!!!!!!!
You have gone and done it again! But this is even worse; You Lady have left a two week cliff hanger ------- TWO WEEKS!! I know
you are the queen of cliffhangers but give you poor readers a break (and not an arm or leg)
Anyhow I hope you have a great festive season and your weeks break is deserved (said through clenched teeth) I wish you a happy, peaceful and healthy New Year.

A "nice" surprise...
I’m not so sure about the "nice". Hiram is clearly about pushing his own agenda. I imedddiately felt for Julie and James. Even the 'surprise' performance at the East Devon theatre, I thought might undermine the Julie and Jame's confidence and display their performances as wanting to the rest of the cast.
At least Richard behaved. Photos and news must surely hit the rags. Harriet needs to let Reggie know.
Now I need to waaaaaiit.
Happy holidays!
Yes
It does send a "see how shit you are" message, doesn't it?
Richard's Presence
I was right that the surprise visitor was Richard. However, I knew that Harriet would be able to resist his charms.
It may adversely affect Julie and disturb the chemistry she has with her Romeo. We shall see in the next episode.
Hiram is more than a little devious but maybe Magnolia will have a little dalliance with Richard.
In somewhat of a reverse to the "rock star" effect I actually saw The Rolling Stones in 1962 at a London club called The Marquee when they were the support group to another more famous (at that time) group called Georgie Fame And The Blue Flames who were the main attraction. I was impressed but never realised that they would go on to become superstars.
Jealousy rears its ugly head.
Julia was already intimidated by Harriet. I hope this doesn't interfere with ability to perform in the future.
Pretty Sure It's Not Jealousy
Julie does feel inferior to Harriet and is likely crushed and feeling very inadequate after watching Harriet's performance. Harriet wants to find her and help her. It's also possible that there are issues in her relationship with James.
Thanks to Bronwen. I've been enjoying this new addition to Harriet's story.
Uh oh
I hope she doesn’t do something drastic
hugs :)

I hope Julie is okay
poor girl ...
Us old people need the week off.
Masterfully done, ending with Julie in the wind for 2 WEEKS. The queen of the cliff hangers strikes again !
Of course, I still expect you to review my story.

Wonderful
Another wonderful chapter in an amazing saga. As one married to a costumer, I have enjoyed the theatrical aspects. The 'future asides' are interesting. The year, for Harriet, must be well in our future, not at the present.
Best wishes for a Merry Christmas.
I had a feeling that might
I had a feeling that might backfire on them and Julie would react like that. she didn't have the greatest confidence in herself to start with.
Surprise not always good
Some surprises are nice, even welcomed. But sometimes a surprise has a detrimental effect, angering the recipient.
Hiram's Richard surprise could have backfired had Richard and Harriet had serious issues. His surprise could have also backfired had Harriet refused to give a performance with Richard. But that isn't Harriet's nature; maybe her agent will make Hiram pay for his actions.
Julie needs to be found, sat down and find out her problem. Julie is comparing her performance with an actress whose performed longer and with several different directors and actors. An actress who has also performed several of Shakespeare's plays.
There is no way Julie can be of the same caliber as Harriet, an experienced actress. This fact needs to be pounded into Julie's head, or Julie needs to stop acting if she can't understand it.
If Julie continues acting she needs to understand that every performance she gives will be compared to a performance given by another, whether she likes it or not. It's a down side of acting.
Others have feelings too.
