...house records were broken the first week. Yet the subject was regarded as so out-of-date that most film makers considered the producers crazy to gamble $3.5 million on it. What is this kinky movie? And what famous male star appears in drag in the title role? If you answer Lassie to both questions, you will be given instant directions to Radio City Music Hall, where thousands of kids are laughing and crying every day at the trials of Hollywood's top dog in The Magic of Lassie...
...high school yearbook. In fact, you were probably the editor, and although it was a hell of a lot of work, you probably enjoyed it. But, come now, could you really see doing it again, for a bigger and more indifferent student body? HYP seems to be a real drag. And each year the yearbook doesn't have a name; instead, it is known by the number of the graduating class--as in 342, or whatever. Pretty stuffy, eh? You bet. The one essential service provided by the HYP every year is the Freshman Register, which can be used...

James Horan gives a truly libidinous performance as the satyriacal, cynical Horner. Horan captures the selfish sexuality of Horner almost perfectly, though after a while the sight of him cramming his tongue down the ladies' throats is a bit much. Still, Horan copes well with the assignment Wycherly gives him; he is the satirical voice in the play. Horan would be the focus of the production were it not for Diane Venora's wonderful portrayal of Mafgery...
