THEATER
On Broadway PLAY IT AGAIN, SAM. Woody Allen stars in his new play as Allan Felix, an ex posed ganglion of neuroses, guilts and self-recriminations, whose wife has just left him. Coached by his fantasy hero, Humphrey Bogart, Allan does get a girl—he winds up in bed with his best friend's wife. The play does not properly progress along with the evening, but Allen's kooky angle of vision and nimble jokes are amusement enough.
CANTERBURY TALES. There is something innocent and sweet about Geoffrey Chaucer. Unfortunately, the Chaucerian spirit is largely missing from this British musical. The chorus boys' codpieces are ample, but they scarcely camouflage the empty boisterousness of both dance and bawdry.
