THEATER
On Broadway ALL IN GOOD TIME. Bill Naughton has fashioned a tenderly perceptive human comedy out of a single obvious and slightly quaint-sounding joke: the inabili ty of a pair of provincial newlyweds to consummate their marriage. There are no clinical freaks to be found here—just blessedly real people.
TINY ALICE. Edward Albee's opaque allegory peddles the fallacy that the pure in heart are mortally vulnerable before institutionalized worldliness. The symbols tinkle hollowly, but the theatricality of the play is electrically charged by John Gielgud and Irene Worth.
THE OWL AND THE PUSSYCAT. A raucous contest between the flesh and the spirit has riotous results. Diana Sands and Alan Alda are delightful as a battling prostitute and a book clerk.
LUV. Three characters take a bath in a river of self-pitying tears. The talents of Author Murray Schisgal, Director Mike Nichols, and Actors Eli Wallach, Anne Jackson and Alan Arkin make the immersion hilarious.
