In many ways, this role is the juiciest in the operetta; as a fleshly man who merely feigns ethereality, Reginald is the butt of most of Gilbert's jokes, and as the frustrated lover of the simple maiden Patience, he gets to sing many of his funniest lyrics.

Largely because of successful management efforts to diversify its line of alloyed steels and specialty tubing used in construction, the company has been consistently profitable. Despite the recession, Copperweld sales in the first half of 1975 climbed to $162.5 million from $150.6 million a year earlier. Profits jumped from $6.2 million to a record $8 million. Copperweld is particularly vulnerable to raiders because...
