Amid the road-torn tour buses sits a sea of people with shag haircuts, dirty baseball caps and belly shirts. Although it may have looked like a clearly crafted shot from a MTV video, the after-school crowd lining the sidewalk outside D.C.'s 9:30 Club on Oct. 28 was entirely teenagers and twenty-somethings waiting for a somewhat forgettable punk-rock show.

There's something holy about the relationships between girls and their fathers. Even beyond Freud's Electra explanation, there's a fascination and idolization among young girls of their father figures. The same worship among girls at the elementary level surrounds horses. In our collective memory there is a girl in the back of the classroom, her eyes a million miles away, dreaming of ponies and unicorns. These fascinations are celebrated in John Gatins' "Dreamer."
While watching "Waiting...," a new comedy starring Ryan Reynolds, the audience will probably start to have thoughts that evoke the movie's title. Some of these thoughts may include, "I can't believe I waited in line for this," or "I don't think I will wait to go to the bathroom," or - most popularly - "I can't wait until this movie is over." The premise is not a bad one, and many of the actors portraying the misfits and rejects who work at Shenanigan's restaurant are veterans of past successful comedies. For a variety of reasons, however, "Waiting..." doesn't work.

Brendan Benson is no newbie when it comes to playing live music. In fact, these days he's kind of lost his sparkle. His emaciated bottom swam under his belt-sucked waist, and his mussed hair and stubbly face hid under the rim of a cap. His scraggly ways didn't affect his performance, however, which was full of heart and perfectly hit high notes.

Thousands of protesters clogged the streets of downtown Washington Saturday as they rallied against the war in Iraq with a message to "bring the troops home now."
Cindy Sheehan and other speakers compared the war in Iraq to the Vietnam War last night in the Kay Spiritual Center. A sign in front of the podium greeted students, proclaiming the message of the night, "Bring Them Home Now."

The only thing Queen Elizabeth I, Hitler and Ronald Reagan have in common is that they are all played by the same man in Sarah Ruhl's "Passion Play, a cycle."
"Freshmen"
Their best player is an over-the-hill third baseman who runs slower than molasses in winter. Their best hitter is a problem child who was left off the postseason roster last year because he was such trouble. Their best pitcher is a Cuban defector who won a World Series MVP almost a decade ago. And their closer who leads the NL in saves was a complete unknown going into this season.
Ah, summer in the District. Between diving headfirst into internships and classes, it's easy to forget that D.C.'s long, lazy days and temperate, starry nights are punctuated with a fabulous slate of fun (and free!) events. Make the most of your time in the nation's capital by grabbing some shades, hopping on the Metro and jumping right in!
Imagine two actors. One, a talkative veteran, who has been in publicity interviews many times before, is relaxing on a hotel couch, with well-combed and parted hair and wearing a leather jacket. He is very open and seems to be interested in discussion and generally expanding his knowledge. He's not quite sick of the press because he still has a lot to say.
