The first five shows were designed, says producer Dana DuFine, as a proof of concept, before a bigger run this spring, and all sold out. (Scalpers were reportedly asking up to $350 for the $25 tickets.) The next leg kicks off in early March in California, with Zanes headlining.

The range of reactions to the cartoon's publication among Muslims and non-Muslims alike served as a reminder of the gaping divide that still exists between the West and much of the Islamic world. In a show of solidarity for their journalistic brethren...
...including AT&T, IBM and Xerox, which hired not just engineers but also mathematicians, physicists, biologists and even astronomers and gave them free rein. The strategy led to utterly impractical but revolutionary discoveries. The Big Bang theory of the cosmos, to name just one example, got its first experimental proof at AT&T's Bell Labs...
