Hugh Webster is good as the short worried mayor Anton Antonovich, who tries his best to coddle the clerk even to the extent of giving away his daughter — but to no avail. It seems that Ivan Khlestakov, the indolent official, is rarely burdened by such things as gratitude. And Arthur Ross, who played the part, was able to add the dimension of in­ sane egotism needed to convince the others of his importance — although, they seem to have needed very little convincing. The first half of the play was tense and low-key as the actors were trying too hard to be funny. They seemed so bound up in their own particular stereotypes that their characters never developed as individuals. By far the most comical parts were played by Mathew Walker, Christopher Miller, Jerry Wasserman and Nicola Cavendish who were all able to create more believable personalities. However, after intermission the play became more energetic and this pace kept up until the last scene which concluded in a most original curtain call. But, even though the performance lacked a dynamic quality, it was visually exciting. David Lovett responsible for both the dancing set and the colorful costumes, surpassed himself.
