...Greenwich Village, an edgy "queen" named Michael (Kenneth Nelson) throws a birthday party for his intimate enemy, Harold (Leonard Frey). The guests are all various shades of lavender. They range from muscular stud to the outrageously effeminate Emory (Cliff Gorman), who arrives with a "present": a $20-a-trick midnight cowboy* (Robert La Tourneaux). All of the people at the party bring hang-ups along with their gifts; one man has left his wife and children for a promiscuous partner; a Negro labeled "the queen of spades" suffers for his skin and his psyche; the host himself is a much...
...amidst a six-foot-high crib and ten-foot baby chair. It is quite possible that a metaphor of a man as a rat in the nursery of the universe was implied, but Horovitz did not choose to develop the play in that direction. Bobby is a hung-up Greenwich, Connecticut rat. Jebbie exclaims, "I gotta tell you kid, I'm hip to your problems (Greenwich and all that) because I get calls from two-hundred little madras-commuting-blond-Nazi-God-bless-America mice like you every week.

...YORK's West 11th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues is a gracious, tree-shaded reminder of the Greenwich Village of Henry James. A community of successful artists, writers and businessmen, it is lined with stately town houses like the four-story dwelling at No. 18, which until last week looked much the same as when it was built in 1845. There was a formal garden in back where few sounds louder than the tinkling of teacups were ever heard. The owner of the Federal-style $250,000 house, Businessman James Platt Wilkerson, had furnished the interior Georgian style...
...Jakie McCulloch, wife of a New York journalist, felt stirrings of annoyance when a crew of packers arrived three hours late at her Washington home to crate her family's belongings for a move to Old Greenwich, Conn. She watched anxiously as they tramped mud on the expensive living-room rug and grumbled incessantly about their low pay ($10 an hour). At 3 a.m. on a Friday, the packers were finished and Mrs. McCulloch offered them a $45 tip, which the crew boss pocketed for himself. Then the movers came. They demanded that she list for them the contents...
