On my way out of Lyric Opera's sumptuous brilliant opening production of Offenbach's "The Tales of Hoffmann" Saturday night, I felt like a contestant on the Groucho Marx television show, groping for the secret word.

ELECTRA BECOMES THE MET

" 'How death becomes the Mannons!' Thus begins one of the great scenes in the second act of Marvin David Levy's new opera, 'Mourning Becomes Electra.' Orin, the soldier-son, returning home wounded at the close of the Civil War, sings O'Neill's line over the coffined form of his murdered father.
