...Afghanistan, for example) who have the grittiest knowledge of how policy was actually carried out. There is narration, tautly delivered by Kenneth Branagh, but the story is told primarily through film footage of events and the recollections of participants. The filmmakers have combined these materials so that each hourlong program is coherent and well-paced, and the entire series has a dramatic drive...
...York City's latest avant-garde theater phenomenon tries to prepare would-be patrons with a set of ground rules: "1) Stand. 2) Dress down. 3) Look up. 4) Touch. 5) No rules." Here's why: the audience stands in a cavernous room for the entire hourlong show, while a dozen or so performers soar overhead. Suspended on wires, they swoop and twirl, climb the walls, bounce in and out of the crowd. There's wind and a rainstorm (you get wet), strobe-light effects and pounding music.

...more unsettling sounds. Goldie's Timeless is a smart, soothing album, with sweet-soul soundscapes that sweep the listener away. Saturnz Return pushes further and rocks harder; it seeks not only to embrace drum 'n' bass but to explore punk and classical music as well. The first song, an hourlong track called Mother, is an excessive, intermittently impressive number, complete with a 30-piece orchestra. Another song, the jagged Temper Temper, features gritty guitar work by Noel Gallagher of Oasis and snarling vocals from Goldie. A subsequent track, Digital, is powered by a nimble guest rap by KRS-One. Still...
