...battles of what is often called the last good war. North Korea was forcing him to recall one of the bad ones -- the Korean War of 1950-53, in which 2 million soldiers and 2 million civilians on both sides were killed. The same leader, Kim Il Sung, still rules in Pyongyang, and he was sounding no less aggressive now than he had been then...

...talent for writing intricate comic lyrics that fit the characters.) Sensing disaster, Sondheim and director-librettist James Lapine revamped the plot, recast a major role, picked up the pace and added three songs. The show is vastly improved, but huge problems remain. The obsessed woman, stirringly acted and sung by Donna Murphy, is still difficult to like or admire. The man whom she chases spends most of the show eluding her, then shifts in a moment to loving her passionately. This transition -- which also commits him to a duel -- would be tough for anyone, and is utterly beyond the histrionic...
