...puts the brakes on the rambunctious staging. The rhythms of the songs and the pace of the action are too different, which may be why the single most successful moment of the production is the overture, staged in front of a scrim decorated with the Northwest Orient Airlines logo. Blond air hostesses go through the usual check-out procedures, finding some berserk synchronization between their clockwork movements and Sullivan's ravishing score...

Wygodska turned and the two women shrieked with joy, embracing in recognition as tears streamed down their faces.
