The Asylum Original London Cast of The Woman in White

Scene: "At the Gates of the Asylum"

(They  arrive at the asylum. Hartright knocks on the door. A nurse opens it.)

[NURSE]
Yes?  What's your business here?

[HARTRIGHT]
We are representatives of Sir Percival Glyde. We are here to see Anne Catherick

(She leads them into the vestibule. They can see patients milling about aimlessly. The nurse exits.)

[MARIAN]
I  feel so nervous...

(Hartright  looks at Marian)

[HARTRIGHT]
You've been so brave

[MARIAN]
There  is something I must say to you
Something I've held
Deep inside for so long

(She is about to tell him of her feelings, when the nurse re-enters. They drop each other's hand; the moment for Marian has passed)
