Approved

Feminine Shrewdness (performed in English) is the perfect opera for
summer; a lighted-hearted look at the difficulties created for the
orphan Bellina and her guardian the fraudulent lawyer Don
Romualdo, by Bellina's father's impossible will; this provides her
with a large dowry, but only if she should marry the crude and cow-
ardly Don Giampaolo Lasagna. All the action flows from attempts to
rescue Bellina from her cruel fate and includes two characters who
disguise themselves as Hussars, while wildly speaking broken
German.
