During a three-year hiatus since their 1997 record-setting double album "Wu-Tang Forever," the group's Wu-Wear clothing line hit $15 million in annual sales, a new Wu comic-book line briefly nudged out X-Men for the top spot in the country, and its first kung fu video game sold 600,000 units for Sony PlayStation.

...symbolize the fall of Athens and the death of Timon. In addition, the Jeweler (Maggie Lehrman '04) and the Painter (John Hulsey '03) stand out throughout the play for their stage presence. They provide cohesion to the groups, silent commentary on the actions of Timon's associates and excellent comic relief. Lehrman and Hulsey bring together a good, if occasionally disparate, stage to make Timon of Athens a worthwhile visual experience...
