...himself to be Emperor Henry IV of Germany. As the play opens, his one-time paramour Matilda (Karin Alexander '02) comes to visit "Henry" in his grotesquely medieval living-space. She brings her friend Baron Belcredi (Tom Price '02), her daughter Frida (Marianne Cook '02) and a psychiatrist (Matthew Carlson) who intends to study "Henry" and attempt to cure him. Matilda and Belcredi explain the scenario to the doctor and to us before entering Henry's masquerade along with the madman's attendants (Luvh Rakhe '01, Michael Katherine Haynie '99, Mimi Asnes '02, Morgan Goulet '00). After observing "Henry...
...other leading roles are quite capably filled. Carlson plays the supercilious psychiatrist excellently; his haughty posture is such that he manages to look down his nose even at the towering Skeist. Price is similarly condescending as Baron Belcredi, weathering Matilda's insults and ruthlessly mocking Frida while always maintaining his panache.

Margaret, you may not have known Monica, but we sure did after seeing more than 60,000 pages in Starr's report and supporting documents. Lewinsky knew exactly what she was doing when she packed her "presidential knee pads." Don't let her fool you. How can Carlson say Monica "was her usual Garboesque self"? Give me a break! Greta Garbo was known for the haunting beauty that made her an enigmatic legend. ANDRES G. SANCHEZ Valley Village, Calif...
