I thought I'd only ever seen this in London and although I knew I'd seen Maxwell Caulfield in something I'd have said it was Chicago. I think that after the recent revival at the Bridge Theatre this is probably something I don't need to see again - it's hard to imagine anyone doing it better, and as it's not something I adore there's no point in seeing it just because it's on.
