...were, in their ordinary clothes. There they sit, in what is supposed to be a fashionable London living room, giggling over silly society stories with tag lines like "Up in a tree: you and the Maharajah," and "Lady Klootz and the wedding cake." This is not exactly American-style froth, and it sounds odd enough in American voices, with their somewhat ponderous, unmusical delivery. And when one of the voices belongs to Comedienne Nancy Walker-solid and scrappy as ever, with her hair dyed firehouse red-the incongruity is almost painful. The play's central character, a mysterious psychiatrist...
...only 24, but she is already a veteran of 22 films in which she has been seduced almost as often as Bardot. She is also France's fastest-rising female star, and is currently on view in the U.S. in three thoroughly dissimilar films. Benjamin is a frivolous froth of a costume piece, dedicated to the proposition that upper-class sex in 18th century France was frisky, witty, pretty and piquant.

Allied presently has a $14.4 million offer in for d'Oranjeboom, the No. 3 brewer in The Netherlands. There are no other bidders for the 300-year-old company, and the deal is likely to become the first major takeover by any British brewer in Europe...
...Kansas City production, deftly directed by Ellis Rabb and churned to a fine froth by Conductor Nicola Rescigno, skipped along with the sauce and savoir-faire of a boulevardier on the Champs Elysées. Effective as the singing was-notably Frank Porretta's mugging Orpheus, Jack Bittner's crafty Jupiter and Jeanette Scovotti's vapid Eurydice-it was almost overshadowed by Zachary Solov's spirited, stylish choreography, brilliantly danced by New York City Ballet Stars Melissa Hayden and Jacques D'Amboise. With the help of Jack G. O'Brien's updated English...
