...surprise that Ionesco returns to the security and integrity of his dreams. "I am told, in a dream," he says, "you can only get the answer to all your questions through a dream. So in my dream, I fall asleep, and I dream, in my dream, that I'm having that absolute, revealing dream." But when he awakens, he can't remember what...
...Dean Gitter wonderful as Death. Grinning impersonally, asleep, or reminiscing about the good old days of the Great Plague, Gitter's creation is compelling and convincingly pragmatic.

"The only time I stop yakking," he says, "is when Im asleep. I even had to quit smoking on the golf course because I nearly choked to death while I was talking." After he won last week's Open at Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, N.Y., with a 275 that tied Jack Nicklaus' record, somebody asked Trevino what...
