Papa Dozes, Mama Blows Her Noses.

Presented as part of Odyssey Theatre Ensembles 50th Anniversary Circa 69 Season of significant and adventurous plays that premiered around the time of the Odysseys 1969 inception, In Circles sets Stein's nonlinear prose, based solely on her pleasure at the way certain words sounded together, to a splendid musical score featuring ragtime, tango, waltz, opera, barbershop quartet, jazz and other musical styles. A madly meaningful tea party which composer Al Carmines has turned into a gemlike operetta. Jack Kroll, Newsweek.
