"Charming, spunky, plausible... sings well"

As for that evasive but very knowing librarian, Marian, she’s played this time by Meg Bussert, making her Broadway debut. She should be kept in the area indefinitely. She’s charming, spunky, plausible, and besides that, she sings well (remember, we’re still judging by amplification, but I have a feeling she could do as well with one mike tied behind her back)…In fact the entertainment is musically at its best, by far, when Miss Bussert is at work…
