The Theater: Ping Pong Philosopher
(3 of 3)
Two auspicious dates loom ahead on Tom Stoppard's calendar. His second wife Miriam is due to give birth in four or five months: "If it's a girl, the name is Martha; if it's a boy, Edmund." No ambiguities there. And on June 10, the Royal Shakespeare Company presents his latest play, Travesties. It deals with "the notion that at a certain time, in a certain place (Zurich), Lenin and Joyce were there together, rubbing shoulders the great revolutionary and the great artist." It could be a titanic Ping Pong game. −I.E. Kalem
