...other interest. “All right,” he says, “You should do two things—direct and go to graduate school.” Many Harvard students have already started on similar paths in the pattern of Hughes’s map, directing full-scale productions with the HRDC. The road to achieving student directorial premieres is a rather well-paved one at Harvard. A would-be student director typically selects a script, finds a staff and producer, and then applies to the HRDC board. Once the application is approved, the director chosen...
When my editor asked me to write an article for the What's Next issue, I panicked. I foresaw long hours in laboratories trying to interpret the jargon of scientists finding new ways to map the brain, implant RFID chips in my skin or create a tofu that fails in its attempt to taste like yet another kind of meat. What, I pondered, would be the easiest subject I could tackle? What never changes? The answer suddenly seemed obvious: What's Next ... with the Amish. How hard could that be?

...Yard. Yawning, I groped my way in the darkness to my window, to open up the blinds and greet the beautiful spring day.

So last month the London-based publisher launched The Armchair Traveller, a series of insightful travelogues documenting personal journeys all over the globe.

The first four titles are as different in tone and approach as the smooth, expansive river that dominates Along the Ganges is from the wild Celtic waters in the sailing odyssey Cape Wrath to Finisterre. New works arriving in 2006 serve...
...goes both ways. Where Broderick errs on the side of caution as a performer, Lane is all over the map, all manic emotion and naked vulnerability. That is true both onstage and off. Broderick is Mr. Stability, with a wife--Sex and the City actress Sarah Jessica Parker--and a soon-to-be-3-year-old son, but Lane's personal life is famously turbulent. His father was an alcoholic, and his mother suffered from mental illness. He has struggled to find a steady partner. There's a core of insecurity there. Talking about The Odd Couple's record advance...
