...YouTube, a viral e-mail campaign and word of mouth. It helped that the Reindeer's creators, Pablo Flack and David Waddington, who also helm an East End venue called Bistroteque, are particularly plugged in.

Our image of the repressive, striding Puritan with Bible, cloak and conical hat owes much of its existence to the rhetoric of Saint-Gaudens' monument to Deacon Samuel Chapin in Springfield, Mass. His only nude female figure, the gilded sheet-copper Diana that he made as a weathervane figure for the top of Stanford White's original Madison Square Garden in 1891, slender as any mannerist charmer from Fontainebleau, became in a literal way the Golden Girl...
