Title: Terrible preformance of an excellent operetta--try Stratford
Product review: I never believed that Gilbert and Sullivan could be rendered unfunny, but this cardboard production manages to produce the impossible. they have turned one of the funniest, most dynamic plays to a static yawn. The singing on a whole is pretty good, but the sound quality and acting are terrible. I'd say go for the Stratford production: while the voices may not be quite as good (and for many of the singers are)--the Canadian production is far better at catching the sparkle and playfulness of this play.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
