...messianic shadow on the back of the stage. Set and lighting, in fact, hold Ibsen's character-oriented play to a high-wire of beauty. Piping classical music brings out a gracile quatro of stage hands between acts one and two: They lay out light-cobalt platforms which in turn absorb a dull, icy lighting scheme. As the A.R.T.'s actors quickly sketch their tragedy (an uber-fable about ambition and hubricguilt), its stagecraft is relentlessly Scandinavian, so that the dark, philosophically neurotic A.R.T. paradigm feels like nothing more than atypical (or stereotypical) Norwegian aesthetic...

...General Lee Aliar, Jason Mills '99 skillfully evades our sympathies--the moment he is threatened, he turns into a shell-shock poster child and begins writhing all over the floor. He turns into a worm. Furthering this redoubling of the gender-turn as species-turn, Bryan Leach '00 plays an anthropomorphic (albeit morphologically impaired [a la Rilke's Archaisicher Torso Apollos]) dog, a stereotypical Scotland Yard scrub, who's neutered jokes wear thin, to say the least.

...freshmen who were dissecting and analyzing "Harvard's Hottest" from the get go, just relax. Stop being so Harvard. The verdict: "Harvard's Hottest" was for a good cause. The turn-out in Lowell Lecture Hall suggests that Smith and Michaelson were simply feeding into a culture consumed by appearance and money. Does this absolve them? Take it to Annenberg...

...lyrical magic of Puff Daddy resonates with ever greater intensity. As we approach the tribunal, I gently shove J.P. in front of me. Better his ass than mine. He produces a valid New York Learner's Permit. Three heads nod in concert. He's in. Now, it's my turn. I hand over my wallet and get ready to book. I just hope The Crimson will cover my bail...
