ACTRESS REPORTEDLY DROPPED FOR WAR STAND

Actress Vanessa Redgrave reportedly has been dropped from a national theatrical tour because of her statements on the war, including her call for the withdrawal of "U.S., British and all imperialist troops."

Redgrave was pulled by the Shubert Organization from a starring role in a fall tour of the British comedy "Lettice and Lovage," the New York Post reported Monday.

"I cannot say anything in response . . . until the Schubert Organization has made an official statement," Redgrave said in London on Monday night.
