...Antone, but performs only one number (you may have seen it on the Tony awards--it was the one with all the embarrassing bleeps). Whorehouse makes up for its adult language with gleeful immaturity, unabashedly the source of the play's success. Remember, this is the land of Lone Star beer and the Dallas Cowpeople--how can you get serious about...
Leonard Nimoy, who played Dr. Spock on the T.V. series "Star Trek," spoke to 50 Harvard students Sunday in Kirkland House about the creation of "Vincent," the story of Vincent Van Gogh's last ten years, written, directed and acted by Nimoy...
Those limits are defined-quite graphically-as incest, drug addiction and ambisexuality. The practitioners of these diverse sports are Caterina (Clayburgh), a recently widowed American opera star, and her androgynous 15-year-old son Joe (Matthew Barry).

Born Grace Stansfield in the mill town of Rochdale, she sang at age eight in the local cinema. Though never a beauty and hardly a diva, she set music halls roaring in the '20s with her cheeky Lancastrian banter, stouthearted warbling and flea-scratching, "low-but-clean" brand of clowning. Her 1931 film debut in Sally in Our Alley gave...
