...Dracula's would-be bride for all of eternity, Ann Sachs is a delectably enticing houri in a negligee, or a slinky gown that might well pass for a negligee. Looking much like a vapid blonde flapper out of a 1920s perfume advertisement, she exudes a musk of sensuality that obviously makes Dracula yearn for more than blood. The rest of the cast is exemplary, and the sounds of baying offstage hounds are ear-tingling. But the show belongs first, last, and almost always to Gorey and Langella...
...19th centuries showed much interest in the solo cello; the result was a paucity of literature. It was Casals who gave the cello its modern voice by enlarging its scope as a solo instrument. This emboldened composers, and the result today is a substantial library of fine cello musk. Casals' technical genius, moreover, virtually revolutionized cello playing. He extended the instrument's physical possibilities, stretching his left hand over the finger board instead of sliding it, and in so doing broadened the range of phrasing, intonation and expression.

Bullins' Monty is a street stud who has climbed out of the ghetto without shedding his skin. With "Miss Janie," as he tauntingly calls her, Monty does not so much wish to make a score as to even...
...Resolute Bay with Joseph Maclnnis, a Canadian expert on Arctic undersea life. Charles' eleven-day trip to Canada included dinner with Prime Minister Pierre and Margaret Trudeau in Ottawa, a dogsled ride at Frobisher, and a tour of Eskimo villages, where he ate raw seal liver and musk ox steak. After his icy dive, the game prince adjourned to dinner at a local hotel, where journalists serenaded him with a medley of songs. Not to be outdone, Charles assembled his personal staff and led them in a parody of the old English hymn Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise...
