Over the past few years, we have done a sports theme (Eye of the Tiger, Batter Up, We Will Rock You, etc.), a rags to riches theme (Rich Girl, Just Got Paid, Movin' On Up, Mo' Money Mo' Problems, etc.), and a working theme (Working 9 to 5, and some other songs that I can't remember).

Here is me dating myself...

Thriller

We had all but six of us dress as ghouls. We used stage makeup and went to Salvation Army to get some cheap threads. We ran over them with cars and dragged them on the ground and used powder to age them. The other 6 were divided into 3 cheerleader/sorority galls and 3 gals dressed as guys. We did the whole dance from the video and crawled/creaped in slow motion to the words at the end until the 6 were covered.

I wish I had a scanner. The pictures are pretty cool.

Pepperdine has Songfest, which is actually open to the whole school to participate in but is mostly greeks that do. Each team performs a 12 minute skit with original and sampled songs, accompanied by an orchestra, connected by a script each team writes based on the theme for that year's Songfest. In between the team performances, hosts keep the audience entertained with their own performances based on the theme. The show is performed for three or four nights (plus matinees) in front of sell out crowds, and people from the Malibu community even pay to come watch it, and celebrities help judge it. Meetings start in the fall for the spring production, but teams only get two weeks to practice and are limited to a modest budget.

While I was a student, the Songfest themes were Great Inventions one year, a sports one another year, a love theme one year, and I can't remember the other. Here's a video of the hosts performing a skit at Songfest two years ago, which had a "For the Love of the Game" (games) theme:

Super Mario Bros.

ETA: A couple more examples from Pepp's Songfest:

Talking Greek Sing Themes

Hey....I am trying to brainstorm some ideas for greek sing themes. at my school we do it a lot different than others....a fraternity and sorority are paired and it is a 10 min long production, with generally 10 songs spliced together that revolve around a theme/story and the frat/sorority dance to all the songs while sort of putting on a little show....with a few people here and there singing in the midst.

Any great ideas????? I'm fresh out of them.....songs that go with ideas would be most helpful!

Thanks

Chi O till I die-O
