The Tin Drum is filled with flavorful and often surprisingly touching performances by characters taken beyond caricature or political cartoon. Fritz Hakl is potent as the sad, worldly midget impresario, whose circus bandstand décor included gold Stars of David on maroon velvet; Mariella Oliveri, as his wife, is full of heart, too.
