...Indeed, the events two weekends ago, specifically Stand Up, the Dance Marathon and One Night STAND, were certainly overwhelming in their publicity. Posters were strung throughout the Yard, and there was much, arguably obnoxious, hawking outside of the Science Center. Ultimately, for event organizers, it comes down to making sure everyone knows about your event, perhaps even more so than the charity itself. When purchasing tickets for these dances, was it the music or the cause that drew in the most students? Indeed, event organizers admit that the social half of ‘social responsibility’ takes...
...police, who had been pushing the crowd away, started beating them back with bamboo sticks. Crowd control is rudimentary at best. The police and army have stationed vehicles to block foot traffic from the roads; cars are blocked much further down the main road. There are rough ropes strung up by the lackeys of the local political bosses to keep the masses away from the buildings, but if you know the right person, you can still get past them...

Breaking Roby in the first set at 5-5, Vegosen was able to hold his serve and earn himself the first set. Roby struck hard in the second set with a slew of passing shots. But Vegosen rallied back in the final tiebreaker and overwhelmed Roby with...
...probably unfair to compare the subtleties of Chekhov with the high-strung dramatics of Arthur Miller, but at least Simon McBurney, director of the gripping new revival of All My Sons, seems energized by the play rather than enervated by it. McBurney, artistic director of the avant-garde Complicite theater company, has reimagined Miller's domestic drama as a stylized mixture of Brecht and Euripedes. The main characters open the play by announcing they're going to perform a play for us; supertitles introduce us to "Act I," "Act 2" and even the "Intermission." The set is spare and semi...
