Don’t forget about the sex-filled Pippin, either. Like Harry Potter, magic will be in the air during this production, a raucous, flashy musical directed by Jeremy Blocker ’04 and performing in the Ex. The magic runs Dec. 12-15, a wonderfully scandalous gift to students before they take a two-week dive into the Yuletide familial...

A discordant orchestra of scooter bleats, car horns, rickshaw chimes and temple bells nearly drowns out one of the day's early funeral processions. The cortege turns into the packed alleys surrounding the Golden Temple, where lanes that barely fit two abreast are thronged with devotees, foreheads smeared with vermilion tikka, a blessing from the temple priest...
