Abstract
Imogen could be considered a ridiculous romantic, but Miss O’Brien clearly believes in her and therefore so do we, It is an astonishingly strong, appealing, and affecting performance. Among the other principals, Kenneth Walsh is a passionate Posthumous, stalwartly keeping him from seeming the fool… Robin Gammell as the stupid prince is a bit too much of a fright-wigged freak, and while Leo Ciceri is forceful as the conniving Iachimo, he misses some of the character s merry malevolence. (Mel Gussow, New York Times, 24 July 1970)
