...industry emerged around the First Frosh. Senior Jesse Oxfeld, a former Daily editor, has worked feverishly to market himself as the official Chelsea pundit, appearing on the Today show, CBS, MSNBC and NPR. Husky, chest hair peeking up from his button-down shirt and punctuating sentences with one raised eyebrow, Oxfeld looks the part. "Ultimately, I want to be a pundit. But I didn't know where to find an entry-level job." Making the most of his opportunity, he has got his lines all worked out. "If I really wanted to be cynical about it," he says about Clinton...

A trophy kid is so common among the '90s tycoons, you'd think it was a corporate perk, like stock options. Meanwhile, a woman's peak...
...evening belongs to Nuccio, the ever-slick sorcerer who with one raised eyebrow can send chills down anyone's back. Without ever resorting to melodrama or slapstick comedy, Nuccio gives a performance that is as funny as it is frightening. His dry subtlety sparks laughter from almost everyone yet his mere presence casts an ominous shadow across the stage. His voice may not be as musically powerful as some of the cast's, but he has the power to enunciate and, most importantly, act, which more than makes up for his minor shortcomings as a singer.
