...traditional musical, I've always been onstage since I was a young kid; I'd done Oliver and The Music Man--never Fantasticks though. At the time, I was studying in New York and taking classes and there was just this audition. Three, four callbacks later, I sang for the director [Michael Ritchie] and he kind of asked me to do it, which was cool. I think it was just a natural fit because I was accustomed to this kind of classical love story musical...
...Monday, the Kennedy family on Tuesday and then, the next night, a picket line: speakers from the teachers union, the AFL-CIO and the N.A.A.C.P.

Propped up only by meager support in Israel's parliament, and with Orthodox sentiment set firmly against him, the beleaguered PM has apparently decided things can't get much worse. So on Sunday, Barak informed supporters of his plans to push "civil reforms" through the legislature, a move that caught many of his closest confidants off-guard. The proposed changes - which would effectively secularize the country by eliminating many...
