ATLANTA, GA. Civic Center. How Now, Dow Jones with Tony Randall and Arlene Fontana. Set in the golden canyons of Wall Street, the musical manages occasional humor about stocks and bonds...
...roughhewn go-getter of 49, Hickel was the 1938 Golden Gloves welter weight champion of Kansas and never went to college. During his 29 years in Alaska, where he arrived with 370, Hickel amassed a fortune of more than $14 million in hotels, land and natural-gas holdings.

Cinesias, as a deprived husband, must be a pathetic combination of exasperation, desperation, fury, and, of course, horny as hell. John Pieters does a very convincing job; he brought back those golden high-school days of drive-in movies and cramps in the groin. And after the reconciliation, with Myrrhina chasing him, he gives a similarly convincing impression of exhaustion. Judith Wells' Myrrhina is a bit colorless at first, but in the scene where she is commanded by Lysistrata to raise Cinesias...
