...Elisa M. Orr ’10 (who is also a Crimson designer), Elena M. Pepe ’13, and H. Zane B. Wruble ’11 (who is also a Crimson magazine editor)—turned and sashayed forwards, dressed as sailors. Their footwork was fast and precise, broken up by salutes and spiraling upper body movements that gave the dance more narrative flow. During the middle of the piece, they paused to run into the wings and returned as pirates brandishing gleaming scimitars. The dancers were obviously having fun, and their infectious energy...

...video "We Are the World" sold 7.5 million copies in the U.S. and raised more than $60 million for famine relief in Africa. He wowed 'em at the Super Bowl and with spectacular concert tours whose special effects never overwhelmed the slender dude with the gentle demeanor, dervish footwork and nonpareil showmanship.
