Why don't I just show the Oscar-winning actor the tape of me in my high school production of Bye Bye Birdie? But he's nailing this guest role: "I love old houses like this."

Even when asked to dance wearing a pointed brassiere, a wig, and heels, actor Christopher Walken kept his cool at the Hasty Pudding Theatrical’s Man of The Year award ceremony Friday evening. On stage at the New College Theatre, Pudding producers Joshua E. Lachter ’09 and William M.
