CW: caricatures of Chinese people.
One of the best renditions of this English baroque operatic gem on moving media! Even one of the vocalists, Michael Chance (LE-FLUTING-SWOON!), said, "I have never had so much fun as I had in this production. 'Antic Hay' reigned supreme - both on and behind stage. clever, clever stuff from (David Poutney and Quinny Sacks) - how they made this unstageable semi-opera work as cohesive entertainment is extraordinary."
Speaking of Papa Chance, my favorite part has to be "Let the Fifes and the Clarions!" I can watch the scene (as well as "No Kissing At All") on repeat ALL DAY LONG!
