And as he bounces around inside the circle offering advice and cracking jokes, Bryant-recently named Enhance Fitness Instructor of the Year for the whole United States-keeps a running tally on each of his students, even those not present.

"I don't give a damn about the critics. This is the thing the public wants." Take that as one of the most optimistic lines of dialogue in Taproot Theatre's current production "Seven Keys to Baldpate." Perhaps the public will want this theatrical experience.

Its resurrection on Taproot's stage suggests that some things, unlike fine wine, don't improve with age.
