...real. Nicholas, as George, visibly develops throughout the play from a bitterly sarcastic, but still calm intellectual into a violent madman. Forbess is alternately psychotic, malicious, and seductive. Indisputably the star of a talented four-person cast, she is Martha: from the sneer on her face to the garish bray of her laugh.

Some accents reveal the distinctive bray of the upper crust, but most are generic middle class. The questions are earnest and Maxwell is able to illustrate his answers on a giant whiteboard onto which an image from his computer is projected (most classrooms have the same high-tech setup). The project the boys are working on would...

Neha Chauhan ’08 and Lauren E. Bray ’08 have been married for a year and a half, according to their Facebook profiles. But even though Massachusetts’ same-sex marriage law is more than 23 months old, you won’t find any record of Chauhan’s and Bray’s union at the Cambridge courthouse. Opponents of same-sex unions warn that Massachusetts’ law will undermine the sanctity of marriage. But the Facebook has already thrown sanctity out the window. Chauhan and Bray say they...
