...memorable strip-club meltdown scene--but there's a deep, dark subway of despair that rumbles underneath his riffs, and that's what makes Love Monkey more than a stand-up routine. Hell may have no fury like that of a woman scorned, but neither is there any torment quite like that of an ardent suitor rebuffed--the woe of the unsuccessful wooer--and Love Monkey nails...
...Muhammad has the capacity to launch sophisticated attacks on the President, possibly with insider help, is a situation partly of Musharraf's making.

As Mephistopheles, Aoife Spillane-Hinks ’06 shows herself to be one of Harvard’s better student actors, speaking crisply and radiating both disdain for the mortals with whom she must associate and a sadistic pleasure in watching them torment themselves. She is also lucky enough to get to wear a different gorgeous costume, designed by Jane van Cleef ’06, in each of her appearances. The chorus of minions are sufficiently alien and demonic, although it was impossible to hear any of their dialogue, which was spoken...
