REVIEWS
Six Feet Under rises rockin'
On certain Thursday nights, rather than crowding into Naples for the usual beer and jukebox scene, a motley group of artists and audience members converge in the Calhoun Cabaret for a night of music and dancing that doesn't end in bad pizza and puke-stain ed shoes.

'Les Parents Terribles': it's Cocteau a go-go
Who would have thought that Les Parents Terribles, Jean Cocteau's deliciously black comedy about an overcrowded, deceit-ridden, venomous, pill-popping, incestuous bourgeoisie household, stems from the playwright's naturalistic period? Of course, when you' re an opium-addicted, avant-garde provocateur such as Cocteau, even a naturalistic period gets pretty darn absurd.
