...Patricia Cunningham, wife of a New Jersey engineer, was joyously pregnant for the first time in eight years of marriage. Late last year, early in her sixth month, she began to have labor contractions.

In this she is aided by composer Sullivan, who manages a special, though for him certainly not unique, lyricism when she performs. Sharon Dennis, Carolyn Firth, and Juliet Cunningham are all excellent as Rapturous Maidens, displaying a sense of ensemble which has thus far eluded a good many professional companies. The officers of the dragoon guards likewise observe each other on stage. Theirs is the comedy of loud plainmindedness, of just enough mugging at just the right pace. James Paul...
