Still, they had some lovely moments. John Pym (Elbow) is one of those clowns who looks like he's going to pull the same funny gesture twice and stop your laugh -- and then never does. He's the one with the rubbery face and the fedora. Charles Degelman, always a delight on stage, played Luciao in blue stripes. His friends, also dressed modly, performed less and paraded more. In larger parts, Mary Moss as Isabel and John Appleby as Angelo brought out the best in each other. She was passionate. He responded. She recoiled violently -- she wanted to save...
...cast has an especially distinguished evening except for Charles Degelman, an astonishingly good George. This obnoxious 15-year-old seemed to me much the worst-written part in the show, but Degelman convinced me that I was wrong in four infallibly funny appearances. Reynold Smith, as Sam, and Peter McKenzie as Dan also had creditable scenes...

David Rittenhouse, playing Ferneze, the Governor of Malta, and Francis Gitter as the Jew's daughter, display a remarkable intensity in their more straight-forward roles. Charles Degelman, who plays the scheming Turkish slave Ithamore, could have looked evil just by raising his eyebrows and shifting his huge jaw into a sneer. Only Neal Johnston as Pilia-borza seemed amateurish, but that was as much due to his Ralph Guglielmi accent as to his performance...
