She’s a red-hot motorcycle vixen. He waxes poetic about his subway graffiti. They like to bump and grind at the Kong and chow down at ABP. They are Marcello and Musetta, Harvard-style. Yes, Lowell House’s 63rd annual opera is La Bohème. Staged in Harvard Square instead of downtown Paris.

2. Son also rises
Published Thursday, April 12, 2001

Stephen, Scott’s Son, staged at the Loeb Experimental Stage last weekend, was the second dramatic work produced at Harvard by playwright Michael Ragozzino ’01. Stephen is Scott’s son. He is also an aspiring dramatist who has the leisure and financial comfort to simply kick back and create, while his novelist girlfriend Katherine, on the other hand, has a full-time clerical job and a serious case of writer’s block.

3. Great review
Published Thursday, April 12, 2001

Though it might not warrant a screaming, de- cayed skull as advertisement, the new Marcus Stern-directed production of the Eugene O’Neill play, Great God Brown (which continues its run this weekend on the ART mainstage) is a stunning, supernatural portrait of impassioned disintegration and what Faulkner called characters undergoing a “furnace experience.”

7. Skydiving cults and croquet-playing communists
Published Thursday, April 12, 2001

If there’s one thing that demonstrates how much there is to do at Harvard and how little time there is to do it all, it is surely the activities fair. Student organizations manage to fill the entire area between Widener Library and Memorial Church each year and are about the only thing really as diverse as your admissions brochure had promised Harvard would be. Not only are there lots of these groups, but they are also mushrooming faster than even eager first-years can keep up with them.

8. Touting tolerance
Published Thursday, April 12, 2001

College campuses are traditionally the hotbeds of controversy, the nurseries of social change, the timewarp mirror in which the country can see the path of its own future. It is here that the rising generation first reveals in earnest the values it will use to shape the world it is to inherit. The month of April, dubbed “Gaypril,” will present bisexual, gay, lesbian, and transgender rights as one of the values that will become important.
