...into the U.S. justice system," he told TIME, in his first U.S. interview since his legal woes began. "I want the rhetoric to be stripped away and the truth to emerge, and it will." Though he declined to answer specific charges on the advice of his attorney (who was present during the interview), Drabinsky claims in general that he was too busy running the company's creative affairs to pay much attention to the books. "It's not humanly possible that someone as involved as I was in the production of shows, the creation of new shows, the marketing...
What we will see on the river, John Cronin tells me, is the past, present and future--"what we have been fighting against and fighting for." The against comes first. On a late-spring morning full of sunshine and blue water, we push off in a 26-ft. sportfishing boat used by Cronin's watchdog group, Riverkeeper Inc., to patrol the Hudson.

Speed is the principle pleasure of The Compleat Works of Wllm. Shkspre. (Abridged), showing through August 8 at the Hasty Pudding Theatre.

Thus, The Compleat Works is a fully professional production, and deserves accolades not only for its artistic quality, but for the dedication of the producers and founders of Summer Stages who put much more than just time and effort on the line for the show. Fortunately, The Compleat Works...
...might be hard to draw a lesson out of this event, but I'll try anyway. Here goes: despite what you know you're going to do, what you would have done in my shoes, or what you would do to protect yourself, you don't. Life will occasionally present you with such unfathomable experiences, and the best you can do is to ride them out. I never thought I'd be scared like that. I thought rioting was a thing of another time and another place. I could tell much more of this story, to show how marked...
