Back in December, John Anderson began worrying about the chaotic state of the HDC, supposedly the college's major producing organization. It had not met all year, the treasury was in trouble, the number of people showing up to work on shows seemed to be declining. Together with David Maynard, Laura Esterman, and John Lithgow, he worked out a proposal to place control of the club in the hands of a non-elective, self-perpetuating executive committee. The four of them were to form the committee, which would have power to select all plays for main stage performance. After...

...disciple-adversaries: he was a European, a deep European, not just from the fringe of Britain, France, and Scandinavia. He grew up in the center of Europe between the wars, when old Balkan societies were in flux, governments were tyrannical or unstable, and economies sickly or chaotic. For Western Europe, terror was still an outrage, even in war-time an exception to the rule. In Eastern Europe, terror walked in everyday clothes; Dedijer's first wife joined the fighting against the Germans after she saw four Partisans hanging from street-lamps in Belgrade's main square...
