Stephen Colbert Is Ushered Out Of Harvard Talk As Hundreds Of Student Protesters Scream And Pull Fire Alarm

Stephen Colbert and cellist Yo-Yo Ma had their Harvard University event abruptly canceled Thursday after a fire alarm was pulled about 40 minutes into the program. Outside, hundreds of graduate student union protesters were shouting and chanting, protesting the university’s labor practices and criticizing the two for crossing their picket line. The fire department and Harvard determined there was no reason for the alarm, and the union denied having anything to do with it. The protesters say they're fighting for better pay, safe working conditions and protections for roughly 4,000 graduate workers. Colbert and Ma have not publicly commented.

Concert Preview: Dweezil Zappa Carries the Torch for His Father

Celebrating 20 years of keeping Frank Zappa’s complex music alive, Dweezil brings the DZ20: Like Father, Like Son Tour to Medford’s Chevalier Theatre. Musical iconoclast Frank Zappa died in 1993. Thirteen years later, his son Dweezil, fearful that his father’s audience—a Boomer blend of sophisticates and stoners—was dying out, took the reins in assembling a band to play the elder Zappa’s extraordinary repertoire. Though Frank left us at the tender age of 52, he was a prolific composer of unusual, if not impossible, breadth and complexity. Partly because of that—and partly because of the salty language he was known for—radio has generally stayed away from his music, except for rare novelty pieces such as “Don’t Eat the Yellow Snow,” “Dancin’ Fool,” and “Valley Girl.” In 2006, Dweezil, wielding the optimal mix of genetic makeup and musical talent, took on this considerable challenge.
