...some places, the IMF stands for something other than money. In Jamaican dialect--a strange concoction of English, French and native African languages--IMF last week stood for the question "Is Manley Fault...
...FAULT, OF COURSE, is in the eye of the beholder; but ominous changes in the state of the Jamaican economy since Manley tried to "challenge the power of the Western economic structure" with his form of democratic socialism lend credence to the writing on the walls. The average Jamaican is now 25-per-cent worse off than he was in 1973--and this is an economy which had managed to maintain a high annual growth rate of nearly five per cent throughout the 1960s.

Still, this only calls for a greater focus on the director's part. Instead, Prum flails even more than Wedekind. Scenes take on the flavor of sketches from Saturday Night Live; the light, controlled parody that distinguished the first half lumbers now in its obviousness. Worse, it gets turned back on the play and the production itself, always...
