So if she inadvertently busts her careful Christmas Club budget, she says, "I know it would be O.K. because...
...barrow-knight to boot, if all had their rights!” he exclaims.There is a split-second of silence from the wings and the pit as all eyes swivel towards the “fine, strapping, muscular young fellow”—and then, a burst of unscripted laughter. Gilbert and Sullivan might have intended Robin to be a mast-like man among men—but apart from his height, the thin and artsy-looking Morris doesn’t quite fit the bill.He manages to remain in character and swagger a little, puffing...
