...like a game of chess with delightful ambiguity, some suspense and a saucy wit. Everything depends on the two leads. In his jealous anxiety, Bedford can twitch his nose like a mouse scenting cheese. He affects a synthetic Russian accent that is weirdly comic and as the disguised suitor, he woos his wife with the ardor of a drawing-room Cossack...

...year ago and have been together ever since. Junot, 36, has even received the imprimatur of the palace: an invitation to share the royal box at a tennis championship match in Monte Carlo.

Until last week the leading suitor was Publisher Rupert Murdoch, the Australian whose three-continent newspaper empire includes London's Sun and News of the World and who two weeks ago agreed to buy the New York Post.

...production, like a comic character, somersaults after its stumble and, standing again, brushes itself off, relatively unharmed. One reason for this is the broad comic talents of three of the actors. John Bacquie intelligently plays Gremio, Bianca's overaged suitor. Richard Price (as Lucentio's impersonating servant Tranio) effortlessly outwits better men. And John Cooper turns in a commanding performance as Grumio, Petruchio's spluttering servant.
