Varsity Revue Thoughts

I don’t think any show last night was a clear front runner, lots of good competition this year. Just gonna talk about top 5:
Theta SigEp - great theme, great vocals, great choreo. Best show from Theta and Sig Ep in a few years. I think judges will really like it and I could see it placing in the top 3.
KD Fiji - everyone was expecting a lot and they definitely delivered. I think this is a contender for first place. Great use of choreo to enhance the story, very funny and great vocals.
GPhi Beta - Beta knows how to do VR and this show definitely feels like a big production. I think last night was a rough night for them vocally, but if the judges like their theme and choreo, I don’t think it would be a surprise for them to win.
Chi O Snu - Probably my least favorite of what I consider the top 5 because it was a tad bit hard to follow and they relied too much on girls in the dances. But it was funny, the choreography and vocals were both strong and I love a Grace Gibbs solo.
Zeta Phi Delt - great theme! The soloists and choreo were also incredible and I think judges will really like it, but Zeta always gets screwed when it comes to placing so I’m not gonna predict anything. Perfectly balanced the fun of shows with the big production that is VR.

My top 2 were KD Fiji and GPhi Beta. I think it’s going to be a toss up because these shows are so different. KD Fiji is super high energy and funny, GPhi Beta is a lot more moody and dark. If I were a judge, I think I’d like GPhi Beta more because the theme and choreo are so original. But if last night was any indication, the energy and volume that KD Fiji brings to the stage will also score really well with vocal and choreo judges.

My Top 3 has to be GPhi/Beta, KD/Fiji, Theta/SigEp. And I truly believe it could happen in any order. All have great vocals, choreo, and creativity to their shows. But I think each cast has something they could work on in their shows, and I believe it’s going to come down to who can fix these issues the best. A major surprise last night was Zeta/PhiDelt last night, they freaking blew me away, would love to see them sneak in, but we will have to see.

Top 3 for me is Gphi/Beta, Theta/SigEp, and KD/Fiji. However, none of them had everything for me.
I thought Gphi/Beta vocals were insane, however, I did become bored throughout and it seemed like the same show they came out with last year. Same moves, same vocals, same old typical Beta show. Not sure how their theme will hit with the judges. Last night, I saw a lot of little mistakes. They seemed very mid in my opinion. Honestly kind of a letdown. Vocals are their strong suit and besides that, I don't see them scoring well in choreo or theme.
Theta/Sig Ep surprised me. Was not expecting them to be as good as they were last night. The storyline is not as strong as other houses, but it was executed well. I would say they were the cleanest out of the three and super fun to watch. Great vocals and great choreo but not outstanding in any category. I also felt like the show started off strong then gradually got worse and lost energy. I think Theta/Sig Ep is either going to hit and pull it off or be completely lost with the rest of the shows. Again, very mid.
KD/Fiji was a show for sure. It lived up to the expectations I was told. The characters made the show!!!! My only complaint was the messy choreo and the confusing at times plot. I think they came out with a really unique choreo, however, when it's not clean, it doesn't matter how cool the choreo is. I feel like that is their biggest downfall. This would have been my winner last night because of the energy. Just hope they can keep it throughout the week...
Overall, I dont see any show sweeping all 3 categories. The competition this year is very tough and I have no clue how it is going to turn out.

Betas theme is literally just a combo of old first place vr shows…no ounce of originality
