...known as "the unlucky opera." Harvard, however, is lucky to have it, thanks to a particularly fine production by the Gilbert and Sullivan players. As we've been telling you for two weeks now, it's both a supernatural opera and a melodramatic satire. It teems with mad love-sick girls and baronets in disguise and family curses and portraits that come to life.

Time is a carrion-eating bird, and this is what appears left of Signoret, 57, unrecognizable except for those cat's eyes. She is cast all too convincingly as a broken-down ex-hooker who squeezes out a living in a seedy quarter of Paris by being a foster grandmother...
