Anne Bancroft emerged with fresh laurels as comedienne, chanteuse and tongue-in-cheek femme fatale in an hour that combined keen wit, perceptive humor and unfailing good taste.

The theme was woman and Mi Bancroft played a dozen or so different ones. She was a bride having panicky doubts in the midst of the wedding ceremony; and ex-career girl facing happily the fact that marriage it better, an Elizabethan lady cavorting with knights in armor; a 1920s flapper; a society lady on a psychiatrists couch and many more.
