...play details the characters' struggle with this concept of roleplaying and asks whether they have any freedom given the certainty of their fates. Antigone is therefore a largely verbal affair, but the first few scenes establish a questionable tone. Mike Weidman '02, who plays the Chorus, is loud, clear and expressive, but so smarmy as he introduces the play that one would expect him to be quite knowingly introducing a bad Saturday Night Live sketch rather than Anouilh's searching parable. Beatrice Kitzinger '03, Caitlin Harrington '03 and Liz Clinkenbeard '01, as Antigone, her sister Ismene, and her nurse, respectively...

...retain his aura of legitimacy might force the President to give up if the legal bodies ruled the "official" vote count a fraud. So he refused to participate in the Milosevic-ordained runoff. Kostunica resolutely insisted he was already President-elect, and he was backed up by an international chorus of support, save only from Moscow. He risked losing again if the runoff took place without him on Oct. 8, leaving Milosevic to claim a technical victory. But Kostunica grew visibly in stature as he stuck to his sense of peaceful mission. We can have, he said, "a nonviolent, wise...
