BORN. To Lady Annabel Goldsmith, 46, London socialite, and Sir James (Jimmy) Goldsmith, 47, British food and publishing magnate: a son, their third child (the couple had a son and daughter before they were married in 1978, and each has three children by previous marriages); in London. Name: Benjamin James...
...shouting begins when Joan Kennedy enters the hall; it is clear that the Kennedy forces want some preaching tonight. They are in no mood for deals--when Carter transportation secretary Neal Goldsmith announces that "compromise unity language is circulating on the floor," they boo. When Carter consumer affair representative Esther Peterson ends her defense of the Georgia presidency by yelling "Four more years," there are enough jeers to positively melt the heart of Rep. John B. Anderson (R-Ill.). And so, by the time Rep. Barbara McClusky (D-Md.) introduces Kennedy, they are ready. The orchestra plays "Macnamara's Band...
...show, which moves to Buffalo's Albright-Knox Art Gallery in June, supports this notion, embracing as it does nearly every period in Miró's long career (he was 87 last week). The angular planes of Standing Nude, 1918, for example, show that the young goldsmith's son, painting in Barcelona, had already studied reproductions of the works of the cubists in Paris.

Cabaret's strength lies in a group of multi-talented performers who never let any side of the show down, handling its weighty acting demands as skillfully as the song-and-dance...
...gilded Hall of the Consistory is reserved for sacred rites. This time, however, a flock of first-nighters led by Pope John Paul II himself, in a front-row-center armchair, filled the hall for a special performance of Polish Playwright Andrzej Jawien's allegory, The Goldsmith's Shop. The play, about three married couples with differing problems and a goldsmith who represents God, drew a chorus of clerical bravos, which was no surprise. Jawien was the nom de plume under which John Paul, then Polish Bishop Karol Wojtyla, wrote the play 20 years ago. The playwright-turned...
