...tenor who has starred in four past Gilbert and Sullivan shows, is singing at one end of the room. Standing in front of him, next to a working piano, is Karen Krag '76, the music director and conductor for Princess Ida. Krag is singing along with Fuller, using a pencil as a baton, and swaying from side to side with the rhythm of the music. Her long, thick hair is plaited into two golden brown braids.
