...Martin as J.B.'s wife, and Christopher Plummer as Nickels (the popcorn vendor who portrays Satan) are all excellent. Boris Aronson's set is magnificent; Miss Ballard's costumes catch the proper blend of the gaudy and grotesque; David Amram's music and Tharon Musser's lighting lend almost surrealistic overtones to the drama.

Only six months ago, Khrushchev had told Nasser in Moscow: "You will have all necessary help from us" in uniting the Arab people. But despite their recent promise to lend money for the Aswan Dam, the Reds are tying more and more knots in their tight economic strings on Cairo.
