Particularly funny among the crowds of people who come on stage are David Margolin and Bonnie Freid as the Fates, Bob and Wendy; the chorus of Rich Buck and Andy Pugh, and Tom Saunders as Lorenzo Miller, who, in a wonderful game-show-host croon, tells the audience that they are only characters in his play.

William Miller: "The best proof of his commitment [to trimming the budget] is that he can't get re-elected unless he deals with inflation." But if Carter cuts too sharply he will alienate many of the groups?liberals, minorities, labor?who supported him in '76. Senator Ted Kennedy, a potential Carter rival in 1980, has already threatened to fight any reductions in health appropriations.
