...Scruggs, one of whistle-blower Jeffrey Wigand's lawyers, who is helping on the Mississippi Medicaid suit. "This is a very sophisticated business transaction by Bennett LeBow."

"They can't turn off the money," says Alexander's senior consultant, Mike Murphy, "because they never turned...
AIDS is the shadow hovering over all the people in Rent, but the musical doesn't dwell on illness or turn preachy; it is too busy celebrating life and chronicling its characters' efforts to squeeze out every last drop of it. Tom Collins (Jesse L. Martin), a gay teacher, hooks up with Angel (Wilson Jermaine Heredia), a high-spirited transvestite. Joanne (Fredi Walker), a lesbian attorney, gets together with Maureen (Idina Menzel), a performance artist who has just broken up with Mark (Anthony Rapp), a video filmmaker who acts as the musical's narrator and guide...
