Treacy:
Try the English movie, "The Full Monty" A tale of unemployed Sheffield
steel workers adapting to the a brave new and certainly funnier world. Here
in Yellow Springs the audience just laughed and laughed along. My
sweetheart made some allusion to the fact that the guy that was wrapping
himself in Saran wrap to hold in his paunch while eating a candy bar
reminded her of me.

Subject: "Rent"
On Saturday, I saw the musical "Rent" and would be interested in what other
people on pen-l think about it. (Luckily my in-laws paid for the tix; this
ain't people's theatre.) I thought its point was that the "bourgeois" ideas
about love and its importance applied not only to the usual "straight"
couples but also to down-and-out bohemians, including AIDS-stricken gays,
lesbians, and drag queens.
in pen-l solidarity,
