...Denmark, a musical based on Hamlet. J.F. Smith's bare brick-walled Deja Vu, which looks like a Greenwich Village coffeehouse, is on the eastern frontiers of Hollywood Boulevard. The Studio Theater Playhouse, which is currently premiering a delightful musical version of Ray Bradbury's story Dandelion Wine, is in a working-class neighborhood near Los Angeles' Griffith Park, surrounded by warehouses. In a vacant lot next door to the Playhouse, a guard dog snarls at patrons from behind a chain-link fence. Inside, a remarkably sophisticated set recreates a cheerful Illinois town...

...worsteds-these are unmistakable parts of Wolfe's style. It is still called the New Journalism, although the form is as old as the Beatles and the author is now 48. Like the Beatles, Wolfe has had a revolutionary impact on his field. His imitators have spread like dandelion fluff, and his work still stirs furious debate...
