What does it mean Are we to imagine a vast mob of people milling about in front of the theatre holding placards crying out for the artistic director and going Limp like anti nuclear demonstrators when the police come to carry them away by popular has it some thing to do with the volume of mail the phone Calls from women.? a remark passed by a Matron at a cocktail party who knows perhaps it simply Means that they could t think of anything else to do. The show seemed to work once Why not try to flog it again see if it has l e juice in it. The Fant Sticks a musical parable., is. Back at the Mac. By popular the show was last seen in these also of sir Johnston Forbes Robertson staggering off. The stage after what seemed to be the Millionth performance of Jerome k. Jerome s the pass ing of the third floor Back burying his face in a curtain and crying Jesus will they never let me play another the players and the director at Mac Mil of course deny it but that heart rending cry is implicit in the mood of the current product on one is aware of suppressed yawns and mechanical responses. I am not saying that the. Mac production is Sloppy. The production has obviously been Given a great Deal of attention Are All apparently trying to give of their Best. The play simply in t coming to life for them. One can almost parts at the end of the 1965-66 i hear the wheels turning and the season. It did Welt then and the Public apparently has been screaming for it Ever since. This is not the proper moment to refer to the 1966 production it was reviewed on its Day and if i recall did quite Well. The show frail As it is has an Over plus Charm and ifs Epperly can sure there1 is also no. Point in mentioning that the show has been running in new York since May 1960 Long life is no indication of anything. There Are people now entering univer sity who were not yet born when the Mousetrap opened in London. The production we must con Sider Here is the one brought Forth on t he mtg stage wednesday evening under the direction of Edward Gilbert. The play remains a slender thing of. Considerable Charm. The tunes Are trivial but somehow memorable the things the play has to say. About love and youth Are common place but somehow profound nonetheless. It is unfortunate then that this particular production is singularly lacking in magic. There is a certain slackness about the production that suggests that too Many of those involved must have a feeling deep Down inside that they have been through All this too often two members of the cast Leta Anderson who plays the girl Luisa arid David Sabin who plays one of the fathers have both endured Long engagements in other of the show. Or. Gilbert of course has been through it All before As director. There Are performers of course who have made careers for themselves playing the same role again and again.

One can almost hear the whirr of the clockwork engine As the machine lurches Forward. Sam Greene who plays the key role of Al Gallo the narrator has not to my knowl played his role before but in gives the impression that he is played it once too often. Those who have heard the expression he walked through Lis part should observe or. Reene to see a practical demonstration. The part cries out for a quicksilver perform Ance a lightness of a romantic Aura that is totally lacking in his performance. Or. Greene like most of Nis fellow actors seems weary and a trifle bored. He sings quite Well but his part is one in. Which we would be willing to forego Good singing if the touch was sure Don Sutherland As Matt the Young Lover also sings very Well but he too tends to be too stolid.

Boms Leel said religion has never used mass Media properly because it is afraid of it and does not understand it however he said the churches seem to be aware of their Short comings As far1 As exploitation of mass Media is concerned and appointed him in 1967. He described his work As an experimental two year program combining the National production units of the anglican roman Catholic and United churches which if successful May become a permanent organization.
