with Chef from The Cutting Edge
Bon Appétit! was comprised of two icons of the television age: music
draped over the words and gestures of Julia Child, the
mother-of-all-foodies, in her black-and-white days; written for Jean
Stapleton, famed original-cast, Broadway-musical comedienne, in her
late career. The juxtaposition clicked for a few seasons, as a
curtain-raiser for the more substantial Italian Lesson. The work lives
on by virtue of flamboyant mezzos, piano-accompanied at gala occasions
where great quantities of chocolate are consumed.
Two episodes of the second WGBH-TV season were conflated: the race
between the whisk and the electric beater comes out of a different
cake. Props have been used, or not. Hoiby's music deftly veers around
Broadway chansons, early television, and Ravelian apotheosis to
underline Julia Child's compelling domestic uplift.
