Title: Blechhhh!
Review: I confess. I bought a copy. I try to buy all productions of this favorite G&S story of mine, simply to complete the collection as much as possible. Despite the inclusion of Anna Russell as Katisha, it is a rather dismal adaptation. Made in 1972, it is done in the style of Saturday-morning cartoons of that period, and the music rescored to reflect the pop music of college days. I didn't like either, even then. I didn't expect a whole lot, and I was not disappointed. Mikado fans will perhaps enjoy it as a curiosity, but it is one of those things you watch one time, and then put quietly away.
Is the review positive or negative?
