...Indeed, Sleuth (which Pinter has said he never saw performed) is a project that seems perfect for him. He made his esteemed rep with creepy, enigmatic studies of human menace - works like The Caretaker, The Homecoming, Old Times, No Man's Land. He'd put two people in a room (that is, on the stage) and not let them out till the bitterness erupted and the blood flowed.

But $25 million is still hard to come by when you have to tell your banker that you're using it to hunt for aliens, which is why it's nice to be a man who doesn't need a banker...
...Panama and write Ana's Story? -Laurie Powell, Wilkes-Barre, PA.I decided to go to Latin America because many of my students in Washington emigrated from this region and inspired me to learn more about their home countries. I met tons of kids through my UNICEF project. But there was something about Ana's willingness to tell her story. She really wanted to - not for any selfish reasons, but so that other kids who felt alone or who were facing abuse in their homes could be empowered...
