...Proposition is the only thing you really have to see while you're in Cambridge this summer. The Proposition is an improvisation group that is witty, clever and a joy forever. They play at 241 Hampshire St. in Inman Sq., every Wednesday through Saturday. Week night performances begin at 8:30 p.m. Tickets are $3 and $4, and there's a student rush...
Only yesterday we were up to our erogenous zones in joy and on our way to that ultimate sensuous bestseller, the Japanese vibrator cookbook.
