THE MERRY WIDOW
Review by Geoff Chapman, The
Toronto Star (Sunday, December 24, 2000)
"The ensemble had its highs,
always eager and willing to let fly, but director Guillermo Silva-Marin (also TOT
chieftain) should have kept them under tighter rein. When performing in
disparate units, both male and female actors pulled off hilarious stunts,
notably when indulging in can-can antics in a Parisian nightclub... and this
Widow, with its pleassing costumes, functional symbolic sets and first-rate
finales, makes an evening of mostly merry entertainmant."
Barbara Hannigan is as the Merry
Widow.
