...with good cause, Reagan's 49-state sweep was as resounding as it was expected; the President garnered 59 percent of the popular vote, winning the support of men, of women, of young and old, and of the rich and not-quite-as-rich.

...PRODUCTION of theatrical lese majeste par excellence, this Taming of the Shrew is rich in intelligence and little strokes of genius, and wildly short of a unifying vision. The key dichotomy is between the feminist intent and the burlesque setting. Burlesque and Shakespearean comedy are close in many ways, and sometimes the technical devices have been successfully transplanted.
