...know the labor unions and the socialists (both in and out of Government) would scream, but it should be pointed out to them that the highly paid commission salesman is actually all that keeps the unions employed. If they don't sell it, no one can afford to produce...

Through the combined efforts of choreographer Elizabeth Martin and technical director Robert Seay, I found myself trapped in the center of the looting and sniping. It all begins in wild exhilaration--radios blare, clothes are thrown about, girls scream wildly. Then with strobe lights and recordings, the shooting surrounds you.

But during the storm on the heath, Cobb's Lear gains in compassionate wisdom what he loses in pride and sanity. As he shelters the shivering Fool, listens to the gibberings of mad Tom and later gazes into the bloody, eyeless...
