EDITOR'S DELIGHT—San Diego Jewish World theatre reviewers Carol Davis of San Diego, left, and Cynthia Citron of Los Angeles were both at the Old Globe Theatre for the opening of The First Wives Club, and editor Donald H. Harrison (center) had the privilege of introducing them. The two reviewers' assessment of The First Wives Club appear separately in this issue. Although they did not discuss the musical with each other, their assessments were quite similar. {Photo: Sandi Masori}
