Aleksandr Borodin's first musical since Prince Igor hit the boards in 1890 is an entertaining show, in spite of some remarkably shoddy ingredients. Unlike Igor, Kismet's big assist comes from Minsky rather than Rimsky. With the vigorous cootch dance that shocked Elinor Hughes on opening night, bare-tummied slave girls paraded "for sale or for rent," and a number of jokes like, "Call me in the harem; I'll be lying down there," Kismet is often indistinguishable from Harem Nights at the Old Howard. Further debits are abominable lyrics ("We'll coo adicu without undue ado"), a script...
Billed as a thriller, Gently Does It scares no one. And a steady stream of undisguised hints wash away any trace of suspense. Against a background of urban England, Oliver, as Edward Bare, plays a limey opportunist who, for a chance to travel abroad, kills one wife and marries a second.

Arlie had many friends...
Ether is put through the tube to produce deep anesthesia. (Oxygen is still being given.) If the pulse rate drops below 60, the anesthesiologist injects atropine. Procaine is injected into the rib cage and around the heart, and, finally, as the surgeon lays the heart bare, into the heart itself. Only then is the actual operation of widening the valve performed. The anesthesiologist injects lidocaine to block the nerves of the rib cage. As the wound is being closed, he twirls the knobs on the anesthesia machine to give a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen. The patient...
