Some critics, obviously unfamiliar with Leo Tolstoy's monumental novel, had trouble following the plot, and small wonder: about the only original characters who came through were Pierre, the high-born hero who learned to love the Russian people through suffering with them, and Natasha, the simple girl who returned to her first love when he was on his deathbed.

Although the play has no one outstanding role, Katherine...
