...illustrious Westminster Hotel, the play tells the story of what happens when junior minister of the British Parliament Mr. Richard Willey (Hugh Malone ’08) decides to participate in an illicit affair with the secretary of a member of the opposition party, Mrs. Jane Worthington (Tracy A. Bjelland ’08). Oliver translates, “it’s like someone from the Bush cabinet hooking up with John Kerry’s secretary.” And so scandal ensues...
...tryst (instead of partaking in an important all-night Parliamentary debate in the House of Commons) is one of the most outrageously funny sequences of disasters that could possibly occur during one evening. After being the unfortunate guests in a room with a dead body, Mr. Willey and Mrs. Worthington manage to concoct a series of devilish plans to rid themselves of the interloper with the help of Mr. Willey’s best friend Mr. George Pidgen (Calum Docherty ’07).It becomes clear that they will have a hard time ridding themselves of the visitor...

Elsewhere in Somersault, the frisson between image and sound is pure cinema. "Cate's a real lover...
...turned 114 on Aug. 6, which makes her the oldest documented person in the U.S. And there's plenty of life in her yet. "I can remember names pretty well," says Johnston, who lived on her own in an apartment until age 98 but now shares a house in Worthington, Ohio, with her daughter Julie Johnson, 81, and Julie's husband Bruce, 83. In fact, Johnston's mind is so sharp that she still solves word jumbles in her head; remembers joke punch lines; and, when she has trouble sleeping, runs through the names of her 36 grandchildren and great...
