Title	Metropolitan's Goldsmith Lacks Gusto
Abstract/Description	May Hollinworth, as producer, ensured the production would have plenty of visual appeal. To start with, she framed her action in the charming interior that Robin Lovejoy had designed with an apt feeling for good timber, good pewter, good ale, and a friendly hearth. But the action of the comedy was stolid and tiring, like flat ale. It seemed that many of the players had insuperable doubts as to whether Goldsmith's contrived situations and delightfully wordy manners are really funny.
