A reading of excerpts from Belarusian playwright Andrei Kureichik's incendiary play Insulted. Belarus(sia), in solidarity with Belarusian dissident protestors.  There'll be a reading of another set of excerpts on Monday from Arlekin Players Theater in Boston.  It's important for us Americans to get up to speed on how to attempt to oust a dictator, as we'll soon be called upon to do so.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  Barely a cocktail — but then, few vodka-based drinks are.  Headless Horseman:  pour 2 oz. Vodka, with 2 dashes of Angostura bitters, into an ice-filled Highball glass.  Stir in 4 oz. Ginger Ale.  Garnish with an orange twist.  It should at least get you drunk enough to temper your outrage (is that a good thing?), which is what people who drink Vodka cocktails must be after, since it certainly can't be the (nonexistent) flavor or complexity.
