...Clare Fames is an admirable foil as Lady Macbeth, sharp and thrusting as a dagger against Hackett's tremendous battle-axe personality. Moffat Johnston (as Macduff) and the supporting company are well chosen. The massive settings suit this dreadnought production. Hackett has even arranged appropriate incidental music to show his complete mastery of the play...

...Kiss. There is no discernible reason why this musical comedy is not quite the finest in town. It started as a raging Parisian success; it was adapted by the deft Clare Kummer; it was peopled by the most competent cast that one could dare propose. Yet its excellence is not immoderate. If there is blame it must be laid at Miss Kummer's door. There is a lack of laughter. The company is much the same group that placed The Night Boat and Good Morning, Dearie among the tallest and most enduring of their type, viz., Louise Groody, Oscar Shaw...
