Marelli's son, R. Terence Galvin, does some of the finest acting in the play; only his haste in speaking spoils the naturalness of his performance. A group of construction workers in one of the play's flashbacks deserves praise, as does Eric von Salzen, who plays an effete actor with wit and great skill...
...SUEZ POLICY. "It was very difficult because here were our very finest friends involved. I had many communications with Mr. Eden, who was then Prime Minister, and I said, 'We're not going to destroy the United Nations, and the United Nations says that these types of arguments must be solved peacefully.' But our action was misunderstood. The British press said that we had let them down. We hadn't, because we told the government exactly what we would do, but that was not publicized there.

Children's recordings used to find some of their finest inspirations up in tree houses and down in rabbit holes. Nowadays, they enviously twirl around the television screen. Nobody makes a bigger noise on Kidiscs than Yogi Bear or Huckleberry Hound.

Tape has been pictured as the ultimate sound source in some circles and one might think that a person like Bruce, with the finest in tape equipment, would avoid records and FM as sources.

Such virtuosity is put to even more effective use in Cambridge Seasonal, which I would call his finest work. In this paean to an academic community, Freeman's generous treasure of words does not seem overlush or recondite. He wields the recherche with deftness and then undercuts it with a wonderful transition to the commonplace. Part III ends with Longfellow "Englishing his purgatorio ... while a spirit-lamp warms the coffee up." Part IV shatters this academic fantasy and brings us back to earth...
