BREUER'S THEATER is undoubtedly "experimental"-it calls itself that, and unsympathetic audiences will probably label it "offbeat" at best, "crazy" at worst. Purists will argue that in manipulating an actor's voice electronically Breuer is betraying the idea of live performance.

Nothing else could explain such a major departure in style, lyrics, and sound. Casting away his previous power-pop label, Jackson casts himself in the reggae/innovative rock mold...
Although they call themselves hapless--a label from last season's dismal performances--the breaststroke squad looked anything but as sophomore Gwen Knapp and freshman Geralyn White went 1-2 in the 100 breast with times of 1:15.36 and 1:16.85. Knapp also finished second behind Kim in the 50 with a time...
