I am a theatre director
You may have seen some of my productions
I often work with Mary Lewis
Who I met at Oxford many years ago
Mary is a brittle actress
Who is very choosy about her work
And because of that she has the reputation
Of being very hard to work with
But this is quite untrue
As I know that once Mary has completed
Her rehearsals for the day
That she often dresses up as a panther
In the privacy of her Jericho home
And cooks meals for her close friends
