The Architecture Revue club, revived in 2006 after 13 years in abeyance, is embracing its fine tradition of inventiveness, particularly in the creativity of its stage sets, oversized props and brazen costumes, as it conspires to put on one of the most anticipated shows of the university revue season.
The 2009 Architecture Revue, Tall Storeys, revolves around the tension of the architecture studio on the night before final presentations, as students, sleep deprived and bearing the brunt of the world on their shoulders, are frantic to complete their final panels and models in time. There are bound to be some strange goings on as these students drink too much coffee, and take too many stay awake pills.
Based loosely on themes from such classic children's tales as Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz, the skits reveal what each student understands to be "the norm" for the last day of semester. By overwhelming demand, there will be the expected barrage of side-splitting sketches of dubious moral integrity together with sensational and original high energy dances and songs.
The scripts are nearing completion, dance moves are being learnt and rehearsals are well underway. We have set pieces coming out our ears and the opening night is just around the corner. There are only 8 weeks to go so we are all working hard to make this show anther great success!
Hope to see you at one of our three performances from 17th - 19th September, 2009 in the fabulous York Theatre at the Seymour Centre!
