Murder, Mahem, and . . .
Starship Huntsman?
The Wharton
Follies returned
for its 27th season
this year,
bringing its trademark
mixture of
music, drama,
and sheer camp
to audiences in
Philadelphia and
New York. Titled
Dial 5 For
Wharton, the plot centered around the
murder of "Cell Phone Mike." With
the help of musical numbers such as
"West Philly Story," "Just a CEO," and
"Y.M.I. Unemployed," the story winds
its way through several riotous scenarios,
one involving Dean Harker as
Captain of the "Starship Huntsman"
(a.k.a. Huntsman Hall). As is tradition,
several other Wharton luminaries took
the stage as well, including Professor
Mike Useem and Director of MBA
Admissions Rose Martinelli.
