...verbal boxing match, the referee becomes a woman killed in a drowning accident while racing with the men, who as young boys were desperately trying to impress her. The play centers around their attempts at self-validation and redemption from this one horrible day. Thus, this play is a blitzkrieg of strong emotions cloaked with jokes. The small audience size (only 50 seats per performance) may deter some attendance, but it leaves one to imagine how the Loeb-Ex might be arranged with so much more playing space.

He had better be patient. According to an investment banker who knows both men, recalling the 1992 blitzkrieg with which Levin deposed his predecessor, N.J. Nicholas Jr., "betting against Jerry Levin in a boardroom struggle would be a big mistake." Especially when, as in this case, it would take a 75% vote of the board--to consist, initially, of equal numbers of Time Warner directors and AOL directors...
