...Festival's stage events--encompassing music, dance, and the spoken word--were particularly rewarding this year. The play offering was the New England premiere of Jack Richardson's The Prodigal, which has been enjoying acclaim and a long run in New York this season. Written during a fellowship to Europe when the author was still in his early twenties, the drama is a retelling of the ancient Orestes story.

In fact, word is that Miller recently hired his own pressagent because he felt he was not getting enough service from Colleague Ishlon...
...Paul set off for Jerusalem. Whatever his arguments were, Paul represents them as completely victorious. When James, Peter and John (who, says Paul disparagingly, "seemed to be pillars") "perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision...
