...Sunshine. A few other aspects of the comic's life are new: his steady girl friend Diane Keaton, for instance, the best friend's winsomely sympathetic wife in Play It Again, Sam. He has learned how to relax by playing a competent clarinet with a traditional Dixieland band in public-sans gags. But Allen remains wedded to a demonic schedule. "Woody's life is his work," says Diane. "He is just not a relaxer. I can't imagine him lounging around the pool in the sunshine in that white skin." Admits Woody: "I have to work...

Between shows there will be music and, if a way is found to transcend Currier House's nouveau-brick decor, atmosphere. The Cabaret hopes to support itself by its cooking--the preliminary menu includes hot and cold drinks, chocolate mousse, baklava, eclairs and pastries...
