• The Apprentice-Brochure Mania

  Brochures are not about words and blurry pictures. And Chris the hot head loses his temper at a casino. Hint-It's not Trump's.

• Shag with a Twist: 1960s Ultra Cool on Stage

  If you're one of the beautiful, martini-sipping crowd, you already know what Shag is. Mix some dancers, a trendy illustrator, high and permanently stiffened hairdos and blazing bright clothes. Serve them all up at a theater and you have a slyly dry, melodic entertaining mix: "Shag with a Twist." Josh Agle and Cynthia Bradley's "Shag With a Twist" at the Los Angeles Theatre Center is not a musical or a play, but a story told mostly through dance, a slight, amusingly whimsical murder mystery big on style and flavored by Shag aesthetic
