GATHERINGS Exclusive Trip We’re going to say it: John Cleese is a fucking genius. He should be knighted, at the very least — hell, if only for his “Ministry of Silly Walks” skit on Monty Python’s Flying Circus, that gaspingly hilarious, wildly seditious TV, um, program that infl icted an entire generation of geeky American adolescents with the need to rehash really bad British accents. Or how about Cleese’s own devilishly bad French accent in Monty Py- thon & The Holy Grail? “I faht in your zjeneral deerection!” Ge- nius. Don’t miss Sir Cleese when, with his trademark aplomb, cynicism and fatalistic bawdiness, he brings A Final Wave at the World (or, The Alimony Tour, Year One) to McDonald Theatre on Wednesday. $55. to the Ballet, performance of Sleeping Beauty feat. pre-bal- let presentation, light snacks, 1-5pm, Hult Center, pre-reg. at 682-5318. $22.
