(Singing) My Royal day
can be a Royal bore.
It leaves me colder
than a basement floor.
The only moment I keep waiting for,
is when the day will be through.
I never notice if it's dark or clear.
What people say to me I hardly hear.
The passing hours are an endless year
until at last I'm alone with you.
Every night at seven you walk in
as fresh as clover
and I begin to sigh all over again.
Every night at seven
you come by like May returning
and me, o my
I start in yearning again.
You seem to bring
far away spring near me.
I'm always in full bloom
when you're in the room.
For every night at seven,
every time the same thing happens.
I fall once again in love
but only with you.
(Chorus) Every night at seven,
every time the same thing happens.
I fall once again in love,
but only with you.
May I say your performance
was a bit ragged.
You were so slow going around
the throne I almost caught you.
Well the audience
seemed to like it.
It's so hot in New York in the summer.
I'm glad we're closing tomorrow night.
I wonder what happened
to the air conditioning.
Mr. Hiller probably turned it off
to save money.
Oh, would you blot my face too.
Up here it's dripping.
Who's Mr. Hiller?
The house manager.
You ought to know that.
You've been playing his theatre
for the past year and a half.
Is that that evil little man
who comes around and pinches?
That's your department
sister dear.
All I can say is let Mr. Hiller
keep his air conditioning.
He can't take it with him,
and where's he's going, he'll need it.
Boy, it's hot!
If I ever play a king again,
I'll be one of those Asiatic boys
who just wears
earrings and a sheet.
Hey! What's your hurry?
Pete.
Hi Ellen honey.
I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
You know my brother Tom,
don't you?
No I don't believe
I've had the pleasure.
How are you?
I'm fine Sir,
and thank you for asking.
I'll be out in five. Oh, my peach
you look so nice and cool.
Make yourself at home.
Sit down, anywhere.
- Oh, how was it sir?
- Hot.
Oh, Um your agent stopped
by to see you sir.
Irving. What brought him out
this clammy night?
(Chesley) He didn't say.
He just told me to tell you
it was imperative that you and
Miss Ellen meet him at McGuffie's bar,
next door, right after the performance.
Oh Ellen.
(Ellen) Yeah.
Irving wants us to meet him
at Mcguffies.
Okay. How do you like Pete?
Isn't he cute. He's from the south.
Why Ellen honey,
I never would have guessed it.
He owns miles and miles
of tobacco land in Virginia.
And you ought to hear him chant. I met
him two days ago at Hilda's Barn sales.
And I'm simply mad about him.
Is that all.
That's all.
Roger.
Doesn't she?
This will probably be one of those long
affairs that drags on a whole evening.
(Radio) News overseas concerns the
Royal Wedding in London.
The British capital is already
festive and happy
in anticipation of the wedding,
which is still several weeks off.
- Towel.
- Ssh. Please Sir.
(Radio Broadcast contd.)
As for the Princess,
the most guarded secret in England
since radar is her wedding gown.
The Princess herself will see it
for the first time this weekend.
- Just give me...
- Please Sir.
(Radio Broadcast cont.)
Other news. In Miami Florida,
a new tropical hurricane
seems to be approaching.
Can I talk now?
Yes Sir, You know Mr. Bowen
I danced in Trafalgar Square
the day her grandfather
was married.
I'd give anything to be there again
this fall, wouldn't you?
Yes. I like weddings provided,
of course, they're not mine.
Oh, marriages
are very healthy sir.
They say married men live
much longer that bachelors.
If that's true, they're only trying
to outlive their wives
so they can be bachelors again.
Haven't you ever thought
of getting married Sir?
Once,
as a matter of fact I did.
The young lady changed
her mind at the last moment.
I've been indebted to her
ever since.
Goodnight Chesley.
Gee, I wonder what Irving wants?
I hope it's something that...
My gosh what a muscle,
It's like cement.
Oh, it's nothing.
All us tobacco men get kinda strong.
- What from?
- Lifting money.
(Loud laughter)
Come now
it wasn't that good.
- Good night Eddie.
- Goodnight.
- Good night Eddie.
- Goodnight.
He's the only stage door man
I know that isn't called pop.
Hello Bill.
Hi Irv.
I couldn't wait for you
backstage tonight.
What's it with that heat? Who needs it?
So how was the show?
- The first act was a little...
- Dollboat, how are you baby?
Fine. How are you?
- Oh, you look so sweet tonight.
- I do, don't I?
Okay. Come on, order.
I got new, big news.
Can I present
Pete Cumberley?
How do you do, Mr. Cumberley.
It's a great pleasure.
Thank you Sir.
That's very nice.
- Who's this square?
- A friend.
- A Tom Collins please.
- Nothing for me, thanks.
Hit me with a rye.
Shall I give it to you?
What is it?
This'll kill you. My brother Edgar
called tonight from England.
He's the boss of our London
Office, been there for years.
The Mayfair Theatre people
want your whole show for London.
No!
But quick they want you there
during the wedding season.
- England during the wedding.
- I like that.
Oh, Tommy.
Ellen honey, does this mean
you'll be leaving me?
Yes Pete. Isn't it wonderful?
When do we open?
As soon as possible. Of course you
gotta rehearse the English cast first.
Hit me son.
What about transportation?
There's some French boat
leaving a week from next Monday.
Which one?
Who knows what's the name,
it's in French.
Don't worry I'll get you on it.
Ellen, this means we'll be
saying good-bye in ten days.
Oh yes Pete I'm so happy.
- Ellen.
- Oh, hello Dick.
I was waiting for you backstage.
That's why I'm late. I'm sorry.
- Ellen, who is this fella?
Did you hear the good news?
We're going to England
and we'll be there during the wedding!
What are you doing here, Sir?
- What do you mean? Who's he?
- A friend.
What are you doing here Sir?
I demand an answer.
Go peddle your papers!
When do you leave?
- That's an insult.
- What's an insult?
(Argument in background)
This is terribly embarrassing.
I forgot all about Dick.
I hope they don't hit each other.
We ought to start packing.
I have to buy all my new clothes
before I go.
You'll have time.
I'll send the rest of the Company
the week after you leave.
- I wonder what they'll be wearing?
- I don't know.
- Pay the man, will you?
- Sure. How much do we owe you?
- May I?
- Yes you may.
And keep the change.
I have a little business to take care of,
I'll meet you on deck.
Okay sister dear.
Hello Billy.
This is good-bye.
Thanks for coming down
to see me off.
It's hard saying good-bye
after all we've been to each other.
I know,
it's been a lovely three days.
But I'll be back soon.
Oh, dear.
I must go now.
May I walk you
up the gangplank?
Well, I'd rather you wouldn't,
you understand.
