...Robert Brustein's adaptation of Ibsen's writing skids between the deconstructive (he has the master builder claim that he builds "machines for living") and the pedestrian, furthering the productions stance as a dark fable of universal applicability. At times the story of the master builder, at a zenith of reputation and skills, seems to mirror Brustein's own career, except that Brustein "climbs the steeple" with nearly every production. The Master Builder climbs up an icy ladder; it doesn't fall...

...individual. Such an obvious rule is complicated by I Get's three-way freeway between Hal Elujah, Stella Virgin and Brook Werm. Two men, one woman? Three men? One man, two women (assuming that if women in the Hasty Pudding show are men, then men are women)? Stella Virgin (Robert Schlesinger '00) is a dangerously subversive character, a postmodern repetition of the much-parodied "White House intern" figure. Doused in blush and armed with a lolli (ta)pop, Schlesinger's cotton candy-cum-phallus act is not very sexy, but still a marked improvement over Monica...

Until the mid-80s, Morell was a street photographer in the tradition of Robert Frank. He strolled through cities, hoping to capture the accidental compositions of the metropolis, chance photogenic oddities. With the birth of his son, Morell discovered the wonders of the domestic interior, the strangeness of objects--there was "a huge landscape of...things" to be investigated.

Still, "Campaign", the creation of two Dunster House roommates Benjamin R. Kaplan '99 and Gregory G. Lau '99, is impressive. The two seniors create a varied cast of stereotyped characters, from the Italian-American barber/womanizer, Donatello Mywife (Michael Roiff), to the not-so-innocent Washington intern, Stella Virgin (Robert Schlesinger); and the script and lyrics they cowrote are often very clever. On the whole, the show never loses a beat...
