Capping Show
The Capping Show is the name given to the University of Otago student revue. It has run since 1894, making it the world's longest continuously running student revue show in the world. Cambridge University Footlights are often cited as the longest running student revue, but whilst Footlights stopped for several years during the world wars the Otago Capping Show have held a show every year since 1894. Each year the Capping Show is roughly 2 hours long and made up of comedy sketches and musical numbers. It touches on many of the current and not so current events of the past few years, satirizing people and problems in an uncommonly brash manner. Since the University of Otago is located in Dunedin, a good section of the show makes fun of the Dunedin and the university. It is currently being performed at the College Auditorium at the University of Otago. Previous locations include the Princess (later the St James) Theatre, His Majesty's Theatre (later Sammy's nightclub), the Mayfa ...

Convinced of her devotion and purity, Charles sent Joan, who was about seventeen years old, to the siege of Orléans as part of a relief army. She arrived at the city in April 1429, wielding her banner and bringing hope to the demoralized Fr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
