  11. Next season at Center Stage: 'Jazz,' Sondheim, Mamet

    The theme of <a href="http://findlocal.baltimoresun.com/mount-vernon/performing-arts/touring-shows/centerstage-baltimore-theater">Center Stage</a>'s 2011-2012 season might be summed up as rhythm &#8212; from the distinctive beat of "Jazz," a world premiere adapted from the Toni Morrison novel of that name, to the percussive profanity of David Mamet's "American Buffalo"; from the improvised patter of Second City to the intricate rhymes and melodic pulse of Stephen Sondheim's "Into the Woods."

  17. College Lit. 101

    There are certain staples of college literature classes. Profound novels by Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Charles Dickens and other titans of British and American literature, for example. Books that provide a perspective on class and racial struggles like Toni Morrison's "Sula" and Nadine Gordimer's "None to Accompany Me" perennially appear on these lists. Even books by popular best-selling authors like Stephen King and Ursula K. Le Guin are assigned in courses on horror and science fiction in literature.

  23. Daum: Really? First gay president?

    It's been a month since President Obama announced his support for same-sex marriage and was declared, on the cover of Newsweek, "the first gay president." That's an eternity in politics, but Obama's swing through California last week, which included a Beverly Hills fundraiser sponsored by the LGBT Leadership Council and a $25,000-per-plate dinner hosted by "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy, got me thinking about his gayness all over again.
