...already confused undergraduate named Achilles (John Kemp). Gentry Sanger, our host for the evening, is a notorious faggot who "oozes into Widener" to pick up new boyfriends. Paul Schmidt plays him with reptilian smoothness. He wriggles and postures and drawls through airy marvels of sinister affectation. He is the devil in drag. His counterpart Ann Timmons (Joanna Vogel) coldly pursues men. She snatches up innocent victims like Achilles, inflames them and casts them off. Ann is supposed to be bitchy, but Miss Vogel is too callous to make me believe she could arouse anyone's lust. Peter Gaylord (Peter Hoagland...

His opinion of TV ranges from "extreme, unqualified" positive ("I love it-it moves me just like a woman") to "extreme, unqualified" negative ("It comes from the devil"). On the whole, though, he thinks it's just fine, at least as Psychologist Steiner interprets...

Though The Crucible is a foul deed, the New England Conservatory Opera Department and the Conservatory Symphony Orchestra gave life to parts of this performance, its New England premier. In Act I, Tituba (Sandra Provost) made the most of describing her encounter with the devil. In Act III, Abigail Williams (Linda Phillips) made the court room scene, in which demons appeared to her, fun; a dull, dull text quashed her immediately.
