Some of these are unavoidable. One of the roles in the show is that of Kiki, who street-clowns with Cockian until, after he takes advantage of her once too often, she betrays him. 1975's Kiki was blonde, willowy Kathryn King Segal, an unexceptional soprano, but one who had a range that could take her stratospherically high, to hit notes that trumpet players might call screech tones, but to do it quietly. I don't see how you can afford to miss it. And hurry, because without an extension, it's only at the 28th Street Theatre through October 31st.
Someone has to keep it from being buried again, despite the poor publicity.
