...known stylings of Lowell House's Senegalese drummers and the Madrigal Quintet. For Shakespeare fans, though, the choice is even tougher, as this weekend and the next will see four different productions of the Bard's work going up around campus. The upcoming shows offer perspectives ranging from a minimalist treatment of Romeo and Juliet to an elaborate staging of Trollius and Cressida as a post-apocalyptic desert rave. "I can't think of a more different set of productions than the four that will be going up in the next two weeks," said director Josh Edelman '00, whose version...

The space in the Loeb Ex space is incredibly intimate and close to the audience, yet the careful use of grays and silvers by Glenn Reisch '00 creates a sense of sterility. Hanging from the ceiling are square, metal mobiles with twisted coils, contributing to the sensation that human feeling can only be repressed for so long, just as the metal coils may snap at any time. Throughout the show, the set remains a reconfiguration of five sliver boxes reminiscent of the inside of a combustion engine, a few gray and silver wood...
