ICE-CAPADES
(Republic)
|F you are interested in seeing some good skating-by Megan Taylor, the English champion, and several others
who are apparently just as expert but. whose names escaped methen Ice-capades will probably interest you. Most of the cast, with the natural exception of those entrusted with the _ comedy relief, seem quite at home on the ice. It’s when they get off the ice that the rot sets'in. And after all, you can’t have ice occupying the centre of the stage all of the time. Even an iceberg keeps nine-tenths of itself (or is it fivesixths?), out of sight. At any rate, while some of the sequences did convince me that skating rather than dancing is the poetry of motion, the show in general left me a trifle cold.
