THEATER

On Broadway

THE ROYAL HUNT OF THE SUN, by Peter Shaffer, is an eye-filling theatrical spectacular set in 16th century Peru, and it ranges from the pantomime of weary conquistadors making their nail-clawing ascent of the Andes to the incandescent white and gold robes of the Inca sun god. When it gets down to dramatic brass tacks, however, the play is full of such tacky fugues as war is hell, God is dead, and life lacks meaning.

GENERATION. William Goodhart converts a Greenwich Village loft into a sparring ground for the Establishment and the hippie, the parent and the child. Henry Fonda, as a visiting father-in-law, fights the battle of the ages with his usual bemused charm.

HALF A SIXPENCE glints with bright song and dance, and Tommy Steele glows with the grin of an English leprechaun in an exuberant musical.

THE ODD COUPLE. The comic insight of Playwright Neil Simon gives hilarious credibility to a household of two husbands who find out—by living together—why their wives couldn't stand to live with them.

LUV. Murray Schisgal's satire of psychic snobs and pseudo-Freudian fools is sharpened by the inventive direction of Mike Nichols.

THE OWL AND THE PUSSYCAT are more kitten (Diana Sands) and mouse (Alan Alda) in Bill Manhoff's amusing yarn about the eternal circular pursuit of male and female.

FIDDLER ON THE ROOF. The earthy humor of Sholom Aleichem's tales is given a Broadway gloss in a musical that combines compassion and commercial appeal.

Off Broadway

A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE. The limited agonies and ecstasies of a Brooklyn longshoreman and his family are the fabric for Arthur Miller's tapestry of domestic tragedy.
