And, in an enlarged version, with chorus and orchestra as well as new sets, it will be one of five operas in the Company's O'Keefe Centre season this fall. "The William Lord sets and props -- sketchy and kept to a minimum as must be for ex- tensive travelling to a variety of small auditoriums are bright and appropriately giddy. And Eve Mautner's costumes still look remarkably fresh. Even more remarkable is the fact that there is still a rea- sonable degree of order in Her- man Geiger-Torel's staging, al- though there are moments when I imagine the singing ac- tors would find it difficult to explain some of their actions. "Musical director W. James Craig, who also provided sparkl- ing piano accompaniment throughout the delight ful Strauss score, received surpris- ingly musical co-operation from his singers, although he might rightfully demand a little more sublety and a bit less shouting! in both solo and choral num-| bers. | "Alan Crofoot, as the opera singer, Alfred, seems to have best survived the rigors of the tour, tossing out masses of se- cure high notes and being very unny in the process. But it was only occasionally that Corneliis Opthof as Eisenstein and Alex- ander Gray as Falke showed minor evidence of vocal strain. Dodi Proetro as Adele is also in brilliant form most of the time. "The cast also included Jo- seph Macko, doubling as Eisen- stein's lawyer and Orlofsky's servant, Robert Briggs as Frank, the prison warden; and Maria Pellegrini, Roberta Ging, Tito Dean, and Wallace William- son.
