Buddha taught the use of compassion to relieve suffering. Ritual, dogma and temples are irrelevant, red herrings on the path to insight. Karma and reincarnation are merely clever carrot-and-stick tools for people who need them. Most of us can do without them. TOM KOWALSKI Atlanta...
...drowning out the dialogue every few minutes (a Streetcar Named Deafening). But nearly everything else in the production is delicate and understated, starting with Lange's touching and unfussy portrayal of Blanche. Toby Stephens (the son of actress Maggie Smith), an improbably fine-boned actor to be playing Stanley Kowalski, misses the brutishness (and the humor) that Marlon Brando forever stamped on the role. But who needs another Brando imitation? Stephens' Stanley is a credible alternative: a cocky bantamweight, less Brando than Cagney. And if his climactic sexual conquest of Blanche is more like a grapefruit in the face than...

...Australia has Kieren Perkins (1,500-m free) and Daniel Kowalski (200-, 400- and 1,500-m free). Russia has Barcelona star Aleksandr Popov, who's looking to repeat his 50- and 100-m double. But most eyes in Atlanta will be upon the Americans: Gary Hall Jr., son of three-time Olympic medalist Gary Sr., in the 50-m free; Tom Dolan in the 400-m free and 400-m individual medley relay; and Tripp Schwenk in the 100- and 200-m backstroke...
Gail Wittwer's set creates a vivid sense of the Kowalski's home with minimal fuss. On side of the stage supports a grainy two-story photograph of a typical French Quarter house, which contains the entrance to the Kowalski's apartment, as well as the neighbors' window to which Stanley offers his infamous anguished prayer, "Stella!" The other is devoted to the apartment, accurately sketched through concise set decoration and attention to period accessories. Heidi Curran's costumes (notably Blanche's, from a chic Brattle Street boutique) further locate the piece in time and place...
