...Concert was a pastiche of compositions from Harvard, Radcliffe, Wheaton, and Brandeis--eleven numbers by as many composers. A concert so structured could lose in coherence and theatricality what it had to offer in variety. This problem was avoided by presenting works so similar in conception, style, movements, music (non-music or no music) and even costumes and lighting, that they could well have been created by only one person. This left the rather depressing impression that all young choreographers around here are thinking and producing the same dreary stuff...

Rumpus Room. The children's rumpus room of the U.S. theater is the off-off-Broadway café house-usually an operation that is long on valor but considerably shorter on value. Typical of this arena is Collision Course, a show consisting of eleven short plays, most of them by café-nurtured playwrights, presented last week at Manhattan's Café Au go Go. All were esthetic stillbirths. Alternating between juvenile temper tantrums and thumb-sucking private reveries, they dwelt on the tried-and-trite themes of alienation, lack of communication, male-female hostility, the nausea...
