...Cook) and her maid (Grace Keagy) team up to pepper below-the-salt potshots at Tess and Sam's splintering love life. The evening's high spot consists of Tess and a humble housewife (Marilyn Cooper) agreeing that The Grass Is Always Greener - a lowlife, high-life duet. Cooper makes this sequence as tart as vinegar and twice as puckish...
Despite their longstanding friendship, Violin Virtuoso Itzhak Perlman and famed Flutist Jean-Pierre Rampal have never played in concert together. But between rehearsals at Carnegie Hall for their separate performances on Gala of Stars, a public-television special airing this month, the two finally attempted a duet-a four-handed Flight of the Bumblebee on Rampal's 14-karat flute.

And Jan, dowdy wife of Tess's first husband (Marylin Cooper), shares the best moment in the show with Bacall, a duet called "The Grass is Always Greener," in which the two women enviously examine each other's lives. Add a quality chorus (which is on stage far too little, given the musical talents of the leads), and Woman has many of the acoutrements of success but none of the fundamentals...
