...1990s, but - not without some trials and tribulations - it has since become an essential part of London's economy, expanding the center of that amoeba-like city to the east. So do big bets on real estate ever pay off? Anyone who saw the sheer scale of decrepitude and decay of London's docklands in the early 1980s like I did will need no convincing that they sometimes do. In the ever turning cycle of economies, booms turn into busts, all right. But busts, too, come...
...separated from their children. Much like Jonathan Swift—specifically in his satire “The Lady’s Dressing Room”—Boyle seems determined to expose the raw humanity behind ideals of free love and art—the age and decay of the flesh hidden beneath elaborate outfits and artfully applied rouge. Or perhaps Boyle merely wishes to debunk the notion that people in the early to mid 1900s did not sweat—they glistened...
...apathy, the piece develops a melody that tenses up with the introduction of electronic flares and static creeping into the background. The distortion of one key repeated phrase in the song and the eventual clumsy breakdown of the tune into silence lend it an incredible power of allegory for decay, like a sunny day degenerating into a damp and cloudy afternoon.

With that framework, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Hawaii, Rhode Island and North Dakota were rated among states that dealt best with the problem overall. At the bottom of the list: Texas, Georgia, Arkansas, New Mexico and Louisiana...
...crater of a room floating in darkness above the Mainstage, the set is both nowhere and anywhere, a claustrophobic box with no sense of time or place. “Outside of here, it’s death,” Hamm says, but inside has an air of decay as well. The uniform lighting almost never changes, and even the characters themselves are stuck in their initial locations. Cracks and water stains blemish the drab walls; outside light is prevented by boarded windows adorned with ragged, brown curtains. Adhering closely to Beckett’s own directions, this starkness...
