Insufficient Funds (113th Annual Varsity Show)
Insufficient Funds, the 113th Annual Varsity Show, played in Roone Arledge Auditorium on April 27th-29th, 2007.
Plot
If you want funds!!! You got it!!! Unfortunately not the case for the students of one of the most affluent and prestigious schools in the nation. Maxine Fortune, a witch of a woman in charge of ABC, is hot on the trail of unearthing Alexander Hamilton's hidden treasure. With the help of her henchmen, Goldberg and Alex the CCSC puppet, she captures David Helfand, master of time and space, in order to unlock the secret of the cosmos and rebuild the gigantic ball that once stood atop the campus Sundial. With the unexpected help of an elderly refugee from Manhattanville, Vivienne of the French Cultural Society, a Postcrypt poet named Neal, and Catherine from CTV's The Gates attempt to thwart Maxine and prevent the treasure from entering into the wrong hands. The show almost climaxes into the Venetian well outside Schermerhorn, but a turn of events finds our heroes with less than they expected...and perhaps a little something more.
