...award for 2007, the group announced today. He and his female counterpart, Woman of the Year (WOY) Scarlett Johansson, will be feted with roasts on successive weekends this February, as the student theatrical group presses on toward the premiere of its 159th original production, “The Tent Commandments...
...waxed-fruit business for something more artistic. It took 1,200 pages of drafts?some the product of Simon's compulsive perfectionism, some ordered up by a succession of about a dozen potential producers?to get it staged. Says Simon: "If we had closed, I would have folded my tent and gone out to Los Angeles to write My Three Sons for twelve years." Instead, success followed success: Barefoot in the Park (1963), an evocation of newlywed days; The Odd Couple (1965), based on an experience of Danny's; Sweet Charity (1966), a Bob Fosse musical now enjoying a Broadway...

...GRANGE PARK OPERA Near Winchester in Hampshire, the theater is a converted orangery, the mansion itself houses the restaurant. Fields and woods make the perfect backdrop for a picnic - eat in the big tent or a private Indian pavilion (but make note: if you bring more than one servant, you must book a separate pavilion for them). At season's end, some productions move briefly to Nevill Holt in Leicestershire, a medieval house with a theater in the old stables. Rare treats this season are Michel Legrand's 1964 marriage-of-convenience saga Les Parapluies de Cherbourg and Sergei Prokofiev...
