The founder's brother, Hannibal Beam (Irving) returns from exile with a trunk full of troubles (literally). Hannibal's box contains sophistication. In order to wreck the town and grab up the valuable real estate, he tempts the town's innocents into leaving. He shows them that Beam is drab, dull and humdrum. The world is glittering, exciting and exotic.

But as I've already said, the musical succeeds only in making everything look dull and monotonous. The off-Broadway theater simply cannot try to chop up and stir the pieces of every other musical that ever was and hope to come ud with anything digestible. After all, as Robert Rosenblum and Howard Schuman so aptly say in their musical's book, "What the ant chokes on, the python eats." And let me hasten to add that the python falls asleep while digesting, anyway.

What it never puts into the pot is originality. Late in the evening (and it seemed much later than it really was) one of the characters says, "I'm glad I got that out of my system." And that is rather the feeling I imagine the creators of this show must have about their creation. The wonder of it is that we were invited to the blood-letting. Clean-Cut Cast Because the nature of the show is so relentlessly scrubbed and sunny, the cast is one of the most delightful group of clean-cut youngsters to be seen in a New York theater, and I suppose the show does serve a purpose in getting all this bright talent seen.

Bob Balaban is cute without being cloying and Denny Shearer who recently appeared nearby at Club Bene is a juvenile bundle of versatility with discipline and a comic detachment that makes him easy to take. Those last named qualities discipline and detachment are what save the show from being a complete disaster.

Karr, for instance, always looks on the verge of breaking loose, but she always stays within the material and John Bishop's staging which, in keeping with the book, is very stylized. (In this case that is a polite way of saying cornball.) But Bishop and his cast never betray the slightest condescension toward the material nor seem to say, "Aren't we cute?" or, "Isn't this a camp?" -a If there is any temptation given in to, it is on the part of George S. Irving, the most established name in the cast. But then the character he plays, a dastardly corrupter of innocence, is a bit tough to take in its own right.
