"IEh Mill the um old fctory, flight for love and GENERAL CINEMA CORPORATION By ALLAN WALLA fH NEW YORK- The 1972-73 theater season has begun with a show railed "Qagy Now." Well, something's got to ha first, and it's good to get this one out of the way fast "Crazy Now," which premiered Sunday night at the Eden Theater off-Broadway, Is described as "a wild musical revue," which only proves that even as modest an entry as this ran have delusions of grandeur. It's about si wild aa a church supper and only a hit more musical. Maybe all "Crazy Now" re-ally proven Is that it's getting tougher and tough fo he hinny. In the days when they were turning out satirical revues at Plaza-9 and Upstairs at the Downstair, we used to laugh at sketches and songs about permissive education, hippies, rock singers, women's lib, phony liberals, television commercials and the like. "Crazy Now Is packed with sketches and songs about permissive education, hippies, rock singers, women's lib, phony liberals, television commercials and the like, and it all sounds like rejects culled from an old Dob Hope monologue.

Richard Smithies and Maura jGsvanagh, who wrote the hook 'and lyrics, have a lot of Ideas, but unfortunately they all seem reminiscent of other peoples Ideas. For example, theres the sketch about a IvttCnUUl S140 a day here will be $500 to $800 a day In 2000. The Negro-oriented "Blacu-la" has run up such a huge scare, "Blackenstcin" next will straighten your hair more inflation: the new 72-'73 phone hook has 128 more pages than last "Superfly" got an rating, hut Warners will try to aeries-TV it anyway the Times ordered more artion pictures into its pages; just let the slanted stories full flat instead Mar-Nr's Bazaar has a brilliant forms and ramps is by Richard Ccrullo and the costumes are by Margaret Tobin. There are dive hard-working performers: William Buell, Carla Benjamin, Glenn. 'Mure, John Scoullar and a young woman with the single name of Rosalie.

Then there's the pucudu-llb-ernl young matron who's disappointed when a black cab driver rebuffs her advances. And the rock singer with a guitar covering his nakedness who tings of missing the toll basket on the highway of life. None of these has a well-honed point of view about consumer goods, liberalism, rock lyrics or anything else.

Only one sketch comes dose to the sharpness of bygone satirical revues. In that, an ultra-modem nursery school teacher, having covered such topics as procreation and death, tries to preach a little revolution to the kiddies using a story about flopsy rabbits and their rebellion against farmer MacGregor. Naturally, the kids revolt, kiss the teacher and learn frighteningly that they now have no one to lead them. Unlike this one, most of the skotches Mack out after an obligatory nod out topicality, and the musir of Norman Sachs doesn't add much. There Is one song, "Hard Times, which, although as familiar as the sketch material, is at least pleasantly familiar.
