...given CEB’s limited budget. The CEB, however, needs to do more than just polling to redeem itself in the eyes of students after the Girl Talk fiasco. At the Harvard Pep Rally in November, Harvard University Police decided to cut DJ Girl Talk’s concert short when the crowd swarmed a poorly constructed stage. In April, we expect the CEB to do a better job organizing the event, communicating with HUPD, and managing the crowd. One decision we find regrettable is the scheduling of the concert on a Sunday given student work constraints...

The VGO—comprised...
...sixties—has an organic feel. Oriental rugs cover the stage and spill out into the orchestra seating. Cast members freely interact with the audience, even wandering onstage to perform yoga before the show begins. “Hair”—part rock concert and part Broadway spectacle—is also part Human Be-In. Like the sentiments created by “be-ins,” a phenomenon of the 1960s that revolved around protesting authority, “Hair” manifests the concept of audience interactivity by making the show...
