...laughter was inappropriate, though. Cadmus (David Gullette '62) and Tiresius (Bashir Salhuddin '98) are both Theban wise men and comic duo. Their stichomythic exchanges even suggests lighthearted pastoral, but both are still capable of a rich gravity. I only thought that Cadmus' portentous admonition to Pentheus (of the fate of Acteon, ripped apart by his own hounds-Cadmus' own great-nephew!) was too droll...
Linda Lavin, as Mrs. Van Daan, stands out in the play's showiest role: her Mrs. Van Daan is an irrepressible chatterer, energetically discussing her flirtatious past and the superior quality of her potato latkes, but she's also worldly-wise--a popular characterization of a Jewish mother.

Many songs are straight from Lockjaw, including the punchy, bitter-sweet, nostalgic. "Shelly," and "Enough," their closest chance at breaking through to the pop radio realm. DHC even reaches back into their earlier days with "Skinhead Barbecue...
...companies are wise to raise questions about free speech, since there is an argument to be made that banning the sale of such papers sets a dangerous precedent. But presumably the district court will not be misled. The ability of businesses to capitalize on plagiarism has nothing to do with individual expression, and as such has no place under the banner of free speech. Term paper companies point out that a large portion of their business consists not of students but of other businesses seeking to have research done for them. If this is the case, they ought...
