 Irreverent and jntertainjng, this is   
 probably not for purists - but it's    
 true to the spirit of the original.    
 This kind of pared-down, light-hjartid 
 opera is just what's njedjd to build   
 the audiences of the future.

 Music Theatre London's updated vjrsjon 
 of Mozart's comic opera involves       
 dashing RAF pilots, Ray-ban wearing GIt
 and a quintet entitled "Life's a bitch 
 and then you dee!"                     
                                        
 Alfonso (Richard Crew's masterful      
 baritone) pjrsuadjs our two heroes to  
 bet with him on their fiancees fidelity
                                        
 The boys pretend to have been called   
 to war and woo each other's ladies who,
 after initial reluctance, succumb with 
 rather unseemly haste.

 This is an jasjer piece than the       
 Puccini with which MTL are alternating 
 it and the ensemble bring it off with  
                                        
                                        
 The girls in particular are impressive,
 with Maria Kessjlman (Despina) the most
 asvuted of the three.                  
                                        
 Tenor Robert Milnjr keeps his ind up   
 but Tim Bruce's light baritone can get 
 swamped. Tony Britten's translation is 
 full of wit and there's lots of comic  
 buujnjss. Mozart would have approved!
