...hard to imagine a more garishly perfect show-business union than Andrew Lloyd Webber and Bollywood. Lloyd Webber, of course, is the British showman who created such over-the-top, pack-'em-in productions as Cats, The Phantom of the Opera and Starlight Express. Bollywood is the name for India's film industry, which each year churns out close to 1,000 films, virtually all weepy melodramas staged as singing, dancing, multiple-costume-changing revues.

Instead, it is British theater's most talked-about new project: Jerry Springer - The Opera, which opens on April 29. Andrew Lloyd Webber, Cameron Mackintosh and the Royal Opera House were all reportedly vying to produce it, but it was National Theatre boss Nicholas Hytner who won out, staging the show during the first season of his directorship. It may seem perverse to take a trashy American TV talk show, on which guests with bizarre emotional problems...

...help candidates in need of a little extra muscle, Rove dispatched surrogates in all directions--experienced political hands such as Vin Webber, Charles Black and Don Fierce, who could keep him informed about where the money needed to flow right up to the final hours. "I was amazed at who was working these races," says a G.O.P. veteran. "Usually they have some 25-year-old kid." Shortly after Rove learned that the polls were tightening in the Senate race in North Carolina, the Republican Senatorial Committee sent an additional $1.5 million to help Elizabeth Dole. "They had the resources ready...
