THOUGH LOOKING GLASS is a disappointment, the Mather House production and especially the cast should be awarded a collective medal for a game try. The costumes designed by Liz Perlman were clever to the point of genius. Humpty-Dumpty's even got a round of applause. The players for the most part tried to overcome the weight of the show and even managed to succeed at times.

There, with the conspicuous tan and the bleached hair, baring a leg in a comic chorus-line kick-who could that...
