Caryl Churchill’s Cloud 9, to put it simply, is all about power and sex. But there’s more than what meets the eye in either of these phenomena—and like all good farces, Cloud 9 stretches, pulls and deconstructs these notions to make us take a second look. In her production at the Loeb Experimental Theater, director Joy B. Fairfield ’03 captures every ounce of the text’s humor, complexity and confrontations with convention, resulting in a challenging and triumphant reading of this play...

The experiment Franklin proposed, which he first revealed in a letter to his English agent in July 1750, called for installing on a high place, like a steeple, a sentry box with a metal pole extending from its roof. If an electrified storm cloud passed overhead, Franklin said, the pole--preferably sharpened at the end--would pull out a small amount of the cloud's "fire." Or to put it in modern terms, it would induce an electrical charge in the pole. An observer in the sentry box could detect the charge by touching...
