...ceremony, observed at Bloomington's Miller Park Pavilion, proved a great occasion. Civil War songs were played and sung. Uniforms were displayed. Mrs. Emma Hoffman, 96, was there. Her father George Ulmer served in McNulta's regiment, and she remembers going to reunions and hearing her father sing When Johnny Comes Marching Home when he worked alone in the fields. Mrs. Kathryn McNulta, 94, the general's daughter-in-law, flew in from Charleston, S.C. Her grandsons, Paul and Herbert Beich, arrived from Denver and joined their Bloomington brother Otto Beich II.

...Crowley, as the Lord High Executioner is the spitting image of Alfred E. Neumann, and reacts to this madness just as the old man would, reeling off his "list" with pizazz. And Willis Emmons as Pish-Tush illuminates the show: of all the leads, he's most able to sing and act at the same time while compromising neither--the first requirement of a good G&S performance...
