Overheard outside Cafe 212: Girl speaking passionately to 2 guys: …It’s not that. It’s that I hate the Varsity Show, I hate everyone involved with it, and I hate it as an institution. Apparently, not everyone finds Zach Bendiner wearing a wig and make-up as funny as Bwog does.

Last night, The Varsity Show gave its annual I.A.L. Diamond Award to famed musician Art Garfunkel in a gala affair that was studded by exactly one star. The event, a pre-show reception held in Lerner C555, was attended by a mixed crowd of Varsity Show parents, friends, and alumni who enjoyed free drinks and appetizers. […]

(Skinny guy in striped shirt walks away from two girls waiting in line to pick up tickets to the Varsity Show) Girl #1: Ian smells like liquor. Girl #2: Ian ACTS like liquor. Ian was unavailable for comment.

T-2.5 hr. til the Varsity Show. If there’s at all a hole in your grueling weekend social schedule (ha!), swing by Roone and see the show. We promise it will be bwonderful and bwawesome and just the bwest.

Word from a Varsity Show source is that set-up for tonight’s West End preview displaced a group of mourners fresh off a memorial service. The dearly departed was none other than Grandpa Munster himself. Grandpa reportedly lied his whole life about earning a Columbia Ph.D. so we’ll assume he wouldn’t mind sacrificing a little dignity […]

The Varsity Show’s strange little website has just put up an equally strange little trailer. Apparently, this year’s Varsity Show features nothing more than block letters in front of a black background and what sounds like the theme from Backdraft.
