Original Toronto Star caption: Masters of the operetta manner; Lynne Cantlon and John Reardon strike the right balance in The Merry Widow which opened at the O'Keefe Centre Saturday. Critic William Littler says the Canadian Opera Company has put back the clock and every progresive impulse and decided to have an indecently good time.
