The OUSA Capping Show The Otago University Capping Show, the world’s second longest running capping revue, is back for it’s 117th year of political incorrectness, boys in tutus, sexy singers, and gut busting hilarity! This year Let There Be Capping Show rewrites the Bible, taking Adam and Eve on a journey of self discovery, fighting their way into and out of flatting trouble all while running into our favourite Biblical characters… and a few we’ve stolen from other plots… and Castle Street. The show welcomes along its renowned traditional guests the Selwyn Ballet (underwear not always included), and The Sextet and Sexytet bring their vocal talents back for another year of barbershop parodies and hot looking hotness. Selected nights also include special appearances from the Knox Farce and the OUSA Executive. The show is the culmination of months of work by Otago students who write, perform, direct, dance and act out the show they’ve created. Add our favourite guests, and ‘Let There Be Capping Show’ has it all, from puns to parodies, sketches to scandal, topical taunts to tantalising and tempting tutus! It’s all wrapped up into a show that’s guaranteed to both offend and amuse so “LET THERE BE CAPPING SHOW!” Otago University College of Education Auditorium, 7.30pm, May 11th till the 21st (except Sunday the 15th). Tickets are $15 for students, $20 for the public, available from OUSA and www.ousa.org.nz

We’re super proud of you and would like to congratulate; Scott Thomas on his cycling Gold, Abbey Dugdale and Rebecca Jelley for their Lawn Bowls Gold, the Netballers for their Silver and the Badminton squad for their Bronze.
