Strange indeed, but hardly stranger than the identity of the questioner. If the administrator had been sitting before Mike Wallace or Ted Koppel, he might have been prepared for the tough, relentless probing. But his inquisitor was a precocious blond cherub of 13, Jonathan Zachary, who delivered his questions with a slight preadolescent lisp. Zachary is one of 16 youngsters featured in a new TV show called Children's Express News Magazine, an offshoot of Children's Express news service, which has been disarming public figures since it was founded for kids by New York lawyer Robert Clampitt...

...upside, the director has discovered a comic sensibility of excess that could hold the seeds of a brilliant production. Kilty litters the stage with throwaways, sight gags (a very prominent Cherub's phallus is put to some inventive uses), and blatant two-dimensional parodies. Two pedants, Holofernes (Jeremy Geidt) and Sir Nathanid (Harry S.
