...Dolls, I will have to try to summarize and make my raves more concise: The near-slapstick duo of Nicely-Nicely Johnson (Abraham Mills) and Benny South street (John Keefe) become the most clumsily charming racketeers the world has ever seen. Harry the Horse (Julio V. Gambuto), Big Jule (Clay Petre), and the other crap enthusiasts stumble over each other and gawk in bad New York accents with such silliness that many people (myself included) laughed 'til it hurt.

But it had several other newsy tidbits too, from Elizabeth Montgomery's suit for $5 million in residuals from Bewitched to a piece on the pollution problems caused by Woodstock. E! of course has plenty of publicity fluff elsewhere; it devotes whole shows...
...season of high promises, broken: To such fallen stars as Brian Friel, Jule Styne and Frank Gilroy, add David Rabe (Streamers, Hurlyburly), whose own off-Broadway staging of his logy Those the River Keeps went down faster than a victim of the Mob hit men it portrayed...
