THEATER
On Broadway
THE SUBJECT WAS ROSES but the theme is thorns in this fine new play by Frank D. Gilroy about the barbed bloodletting that drains away the lives of people who live within the intimacy of the family without being intimate. The three actors, Jack Albertson, Martin Sheen and Irene Dailey, are so nearly perfect that they must have been cast under a favorable sign of the zodiac.
HAMLET. Richard Burton is a virile, extraverted Hamlet with no hint of the melancholy self-questioning that stays his killing of the King. However, Burton's fresh phrasing of the play's famed familiar lines lends great luster to the evening.
FUNNY GIRL. A one-woman burst of starfire named Barbra Streisand illuminates the rise, the love life and the heartbreak of another great and funny girl, Fanny Brice.
HIGH SPIRITS. Anyone who can count to two will recognize the source of all the zany good humor that has been injected into this musical version of Noel Cow ard's Blithe Spirit. The blithesome twosome—Bea Lillie and Tammy Grimes.
ANY WEDNESDAY. Sandy Dennis looks as licit as a child with an ice-cream cone, but she is the Other Woman in a hilariously illicit schedule of sex on the one-day-a-week plan.
DYLAN is a brilliant illustration of how an actor of unparalleled skill can invade the mind and personify the temperament of another man, despite a considerable difference in appearance. For a little over two hours, Dylan Thomas lives again in Alec Guinness.
HELLO, DOLLY! is a big, bouncy, brassy, sassy Broadway musical in the best sense of all those mildly intimidating words. Ditto Carol Channing.
NOBODY LOVES AN ALBATROSS. How to be a charmingly roguish phony is demonstrated by a zany TV writer-producer (Barry Nelson) who spouts triple-tongued, two-timing dialogue.
