...Randy Darwell's set that makes the play even before the first note of the prelude--the Beatles' "Penny Lane"--is sounded. The floor, whose dullest color is a flaming chartreuse, said "festival" right off. Near a balcony projects a lovely pole, with feathers atop, that the actors use for quick descents. The rest is a complicated arrangement of stairs and levels over which the cast runs riot...
...Boston Patriots and the San Francisco 49ers refuse to even talk to the "muscle hustlers." "That is handling players as if they were chattels," complains Marty Blackman, a 30-year-old lawyer whose Pro Sports Inc. handles 100 athletes. Actor Jim Brown, who feels he was exploited when he was an all-pro fullback for the Cleveland Browns, agrees. Two years ago, he organized the United Athletic Association to represent black athletes. Among his first clients was Leroy Kelly, who succeeded Brown at Cleveland as the league's leading ground gainer. At the time, Kelly was making...
...Manhattan brownstone on a case), relish for properly chilled beer (12 bottles a day), reliance on significant small gestures ( a tiny circle traced on a desk top with one finger indicates speechless fury).

Even such quirks as Wolfe's penchant for recondite words like "gibbosity" and "usufructs" and for scrupulous vocabularies of all kinds are minutely documented...
Most of the enthusiasts in Briggs are turkeys, but they make up for what they lack in talent with eagerness. One gentleman who has both is John Kelly the elder, a spry 65-year-old man whose name is almost synonymous with the Boston Marathon. Kelly, who works out in spiffy white shorts and a red shirt with a big white "H," runs for an hour six days a week and for three hours on the seventh...
...should be noted here that most of the responsibility of Monmouth's condition must rest with its author, and his director, Mr. Christopher Hart, whose static stagings managed to convince me that the Ex could be made to look even more cramped and confining than it actually is. Some of their actors do some notable work. André Bishop is genuinely and broadly amusing as the Duke of York, while Robert Edgar almost manager to suggest substantial complexity in the role of Charles II. He manages a nice twist on the King's foppish manner, turning it on for public...
