University of Sydney Revues
The University of Sydney plays host to numerous comedy revues each year. Each revue features comedy sketches, songs and videos written and performed by students, usually commenting satirically on current affairs, the supporting faculty and general student life. The revues are produced and sponsored by the University of Sydney Union and presented in a collective "season". Of the revues, the largest are the Arts Revue, Science Revue, Med Revue and Law Revue. 2007 saw the first Wom*n's Revue which returned in 2009 and then again in 2015, while the Commerce Revue made its debut in  2008. A Pharmacy Revue was planned for 2009, but was cancelled/postponed. The first Queer Revue was performed in 2010, whilst ACAR Revue made its unofficial debut in the Red Rattler at the end of 2015. Jew Revue, Vet Revue, Education Revue and Architecture Revue also feature in the season. Engineering Revue has been staged in Manning Bar since 2006, and was infamously saved in 2015 by a group of past-performers sourced from multiple revues whom put together a show in 2 days after the original cast fell through. The show trended across the country. In 2017, PoC Revue  made its official debut. Past revuers have gone on to perform, write and produce shows in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the New York Fringe Festival, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the Adelaide and Melbourne Fringe Festivals, in groups such as The Chaser, The Aunty Jack Show, The Ronny Johns Half Hour, The Axis of Awesome, Ben Jenkins & The Delusionists, and the Cloud Girls on triple j. Most of the revues are performed in the Seymour Centre on the University's Darlington campus. Tickets are generally between $10 and $20, depending on discounts such as being a student union  member. Since 2013 a "Best Of" show, usually named University of Sydney revue, has been staged as a part of the Sydney Comedy Festival, which is composed of the best performers and scenes from the previous season. 2009 Revue Season.
