...campus. It has sponsored programming essential to the cause of gay rights and has surely been an indispensable support network for countless students. However, like any student group, it has not escaped its share of problems. Last year, the stability of its leadership was marred by an election scandal. More seriously, it has increasingly been criticized for its failure to represent the full-breadth of its constituency in its use of aggressive and explicit advertising which has made some members feel excluded from the organization...
This production includes some new and inventive scenes not found in the script--pantomimes set to Carmina Burana that provide some melodrama and historical background, not to mention a great way to draw us in to this historical scandal.

They're both qualified, but that doesn't seem to matter much anymore; they don't have nearly enough scandal in their lives to cause national uproar. But Warren! He's slept with more women than Ron Jeremy and pissed off more people than Jesse Ventura. Sure, he's probably another Reagan--a glamorous personality, absolutely no idea how to be president--but at least people will vote, right...
