110th
The 110th Annual Varsity Show was performed in April 2004. It centered around a plan to move Columbia to New Haven, which is thwarted by New York City history professor Kenneth Jackson.
111th
The Sound of Muses, the 111th Annual Varsity Show was performed in April 2005. It revolved around the return of Homer, writer of several Literature Humanities books. It is most memorable, however, for the collapse of a setpiece representing Ferris Booth Commons.
112th
Misery Loves Columbia, the 112th Annual Varsity Show, was performed in April 2006. Much of the plot revolved around the conflict between different schools at the university, e.g. CC, SEAS, GS, and Barnard, as well as the continual failure of the characters' love lives. The most memorable scene was possibly one of a Barnard professor reading a bedtime story to pajama-clad students, who whine "I want a husband!"
113th
Insufficient Funds, the 113th Annual Varsity Show, played in Roone Arledge Auditorium on April 27th-29th, 2007.
Plot
In order to find Alexander Hamilton's treasure, ABC has revoked student groups' funding (by engineering campus controversies) to rebuild the orb that once stood atop the Sundial, and kidnapped David Helfand in order to determine the time for the precise alignment of stars. The groups, represented by the French Cultural Society, Postcrypt, and CTV's The Gates, battle ABC for control of the treasure. It turns up in the Venetian Well outside Schermerhorn, which no one can agree on how to pronounce, but is only work $300. A subplot revolves around a Carman RA's grandfather, who has been evicted from Manhattanville.
