If you haven’t noticed the giant yellow banner in Lerner yet, or the giant yellow posters all over campus, it’s V-show time–and tickets for “Insufficient Funds” are going fast (get yours here). Meanwhile, Bwog music critic Bryan Mochizuki has been chronicling rehearsals over the past few weeks, and created this pictorial window into the world of V113.

@varsity show... …is sold out for friday and saturday, so get your tickets for sunday now!
@tca Ummmm what about Josh Breslow…she’s hot.
@ahaha hahaha
@pms Heard a rumor that the characters represented on those posters are ONLY the characters that Mike Molina plays. Should be a good, Molina-filled show.
Hmm. What if Oreos were Molina-filled?
@rjt Looks like you need to check your facts, because IF Oreos were Molina-filled THEN WE WOULD BE LIVING IN THE WORLD WE CURRENTLY LIVE IN, MY FRIEND.
@characters the show posters are up outside of roone, and there’s a tagline for each of the 8 main characters. looks like this year, we’ll be watching a show about:
vivienne (“she’s really french”)
catherin (“she dreams of being on daytime”)
maxine (“a souless, money-fetishizing, ayn rand worshipping bitch”)
neal (“a human person”)
gramps (“homeless, poor, and eighty-two”)
alex (“vote for him”)
goldberg (“less of a student and more of a science experiment”)
and helfand (“master of time and space”)
now the game is who’s who and how they’re gonna put it all together! good luck guys!!!
@Colin I agree with the Dink
@If VS is listening Can you guys try to make sure that the sound is loud enough so that people, including those in the back, can make out what people are saying? There’s no point in writing witty lyrics if nobody can hear them.
@Yesyesyes I have done / would do every single person in the cast and chorus, and I am truly discerning when it comes to sexual partners.
@wow AWESOME photos. Wonderful job, Bryan.
And for the record, red-haired Caitlin will inevitably show Columbia kids a hotness that V-Show has never shown them before.
@keb Yay, Josh! Break a leg, love.
@Helen Ah, V-Show. A Lot more expensive than everything else on campus, yet they seem to reuse the same costumes year after year.
It would be interesting if Bwog covered, in photoessay, a KCST dress rehearsal. Flaming torches.
@rjj Ah, V-Show. A Lot more expensive than everything else on campus, yet they seem to reuse the same costumes, songs, and jokes year after year.
@well Actually, in most of the pictures there, it seems like the people aren’t even in costume (these were just rehearsals, no?. So let’s wait to judge those.
In terms of jokes…yeah, they have to cover their bases: barnard, administration, football team, etc. But I think people expect that. It IS about Columbia after all.
In terms of songs…that’s just wrong. They’ve been very different every year I’ve been here.
And the story and major themes are always different. Can’t wait to see it this weekend. Good luck all!
@where is Felipe Tarud
@looks fun! but no real hotties on the cast this year?
@already oh geeze, the inevitable deterioration of the varsity show post into calling people ugly. get your thick skins on, girls.
@jackass i didn’t call anyone ugly. i don’t even know who’s on the cast. but looking from the photos, it doesn’t seem like there are any standouts as far as straight hotness goes.
besides, you think guys don’t need “thick skins” you sexist pig. double standards abound among the “righteous”
@hahahaha calm down. im just saying if you look at past posts about the varsity show, the comments inevitably deteriorate into a discussion of who’s hot and who isn’t. and it’s always about girls. but your reaction was awesome! :-)
@all i want from the varsity show are hot chicks. jeez, why you gotta be hatin?
@amen! yah brah! some sweet babes and a couple brewskies at the v-show would make a sweet party! ya kno brah?! yea brah! yeah!
@good day for bwog!
