...story depicts an American novelist, Clifford Bradshaw (Zachary B.S. Sniderman ’09), and his doomed love affair with Sally Bowles, one of the main dancers at Berlin’s Kit Kat Klub, where the party never stops and the women wear as little as possible. Most of the first act takes place here, but a concurrent subplot involves an equally doomed love affair between Bradshaw’s landlord Fräulein Schneider, played by Carolyn A. McCandlish ’07, and her tenant, Herr Schultz (Quincy Ellis...
...designer Juliette C. McClendon ’09 created a uniquely appealing staging for “Rapunzel.” The Adams House Pool Theater provided just the right venue for the performance, as the staircase descending from the main entrance made a perfect tower for Rapunzel. Since the tower was behind the theater’s seating and most of the action, the audience was often surrounded by actors harmonizing both behind and in front of them; every journey to Rapunzel’s tower took the characters straight through the crowd...

Hilscher and Donohue lived in the cluster of four rooms tucked behind the elevators, away from the main halls. They were called the "elevator girls."

A few students who did come to investigate the noises were too scared to try to find out what had actually happened...
...story line is also plenty gnarled, in a fashion familiar to admirers of Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill. It begins in 1988, when the main character, Oh Dae-Su (Choi Min-Sik, star of the Korean blockbusters Shiri and Failan), is kidnapped and confined without being told what his crime is or how long he will be held. The movie snakes forward to 2003, when Oh is suddenly released, but still not free; his unknown torturer now plays with him in subtler, more damaging ways. And it ends in 1979, when Oh and his assailant were schoolboys, for the revelation...
