Katherine Squire as Mrs. Malaprop declaims her ridiculous lines with such assurance and poise that they seem even more ridiculous. Earl Montgomery as Sir Anthony is a combination of Elliott Perkins and Nikita Khrushchev, polite and civilized one minute, stamping and roaring the next. As his son, the Captain, Richard Clarke views the behavior of Sir Anthony and Mrs. Malaprop with amused tolerance and woos Lydia with well-bred ardor.
