...been singing and dancing since I was a kid, and I never had a chance to use it in any of my movies," complains Actress Raquel Welch, 35. That, she says, is why she has begun a ten-week nightclub tour through Mexico, the U.S. and Europe. In Mexico City, she notes happily, a sellout crowd of 1,200 paid $80 apiece to catch her song-and-dance act on New Year's Eve. At the Concord Hotel in upstate New York, 3,400 customers came for her show, setting a record for the hotel. Says Raquel...

...better works. Bruhn's Claudius was a cold, imperious, lecherous king. It is to Neumeier's credit that his choreography asks Bruhn to do more demanding dancing than anything he has attempted since coming out of retirement last year. As for Haydee - perhaps ballet's reigning actress-dancer - her Gertrude was a startlingly erotic embodiment of lust. Seeing her wrapped sensuously about Baryshnikov, one can believe that some of the most startling love positions in the Kama Sutra are, after all, humanly possible...

...Pamela Payton-Wright's Laura is hauntingly evocative, a vision of a doe at bay. An actress who has done varied parts in the past several years, she is a pointilliste who composes every dot in a role into a harmonic whole.
