Scapino, by director Frank Dunlop and actor Jim Dale, is an outrageous comedy adapted "a long way off from Moliere" but exhibiting the classic elements of the French master and the Italian "commedia d'ell arte." Scapino is the wily servant who twists the rules to trick his master's father into allowing him to marry the girl of his dreams while the waiters, waitresses and customers of a seaside restaurant sing parodies of "O Solo Mio" and the names of menu items like "veal scallopine."

"I can do one of two things," says Teddy Roosevelt at the top of "Teddy & Alice," "I can either be President of the United States or I can control Alice. I cannot possibly do both!" The battle of wills between the great American President and his free-spirited daughter provides a spectacular double-star turn in this high-stepping, flag-waving and heart-warming family drama, set to the immortal strains of John Philip Sousa.
