Abstract

with even a closely pruned version of a play that usually inspires despair and incomprehension among actors at the first read-through. But the assurance and skill of the staging consisted in bringing it closer to musical comedy than to Chekhov, and when it faltered, it was with the kind of insecurity that goes with the musical genre. This production had considerable wit and charm and lovely stage pictures but still wanted to show it could be taken seriously. But not too seriously: Judge told you about the Great War, then let you know that it didn't really matter that much.
