Pop- a 1st floor boy who's name escapes me, Six- Damien (3rd floor), Squish- Andrew (Drew) (4th floor), Uh Uh- Danny (1st floor), Cisero- Calvin (1st floor), Lipschitz- Rob (1st floor). The boys were very competent and complied to rigorous rehearsals. The girls were all from the basement and they are Pop- Mikayla, Six- Lydia, Squish- Kathryn, Uh Uh- Faye, Cisero- Steph (the hot head choreographer), Lipschitz- Dana.

In the end they pulled through and gave a spectacular performance, but did not get recognition in the term book. The students worked almost unwillingly under her control for about a week, and almost didn't get in during 'auditions'. The lip sync competition was moved from the 900 room into Chambers, only angering the hot-headed 2nd year even more. This was again performed at East Term I 2006 for the TiP Sync, and was almost performed Term 2, but the act was cancelled due to a feeling of unreadiness on the part of the performers.Īt Davidson Term Two 2006, six girls (pop-Grace (2) six- Lexi (2) squish- Sam (2) Uh Uh- Christine (2) Cisero- Steph (B) Lipschitz- Jaq (2)) and six boys (pop- Ryan M (4) six- Danny (1) squish- John (2) uhuh- Skwerl (1) cisero- sam (3) Lipschitz- Patrick (3)) preformed it for the lip sync contest.Īt Davidson Term 2 in 2007, the 'tradition' was filled again by 12 students under the direction of one irate choreographer. This action led to the coining of the phrase 'Sluts of the Round Table'. Also, the group was late to Sunday lunch because of practices and could only sit at one of the round tables in the back of the cafeteria. The practices for this group's version took place in 3rd Floor Pegram Commons which led to a very awkword confrontation btwn the group (all 3rd or 4th years) and the 2nd year guys who lived on that hall. This group won 2nd place at the LiP Synch. There are group dances in between parts and a heavily choreographed bit after Cicero's part for the other Murderesses - Cicero stands in front, leading the music. The Murderesses who were not in the front stood in back swaying and singing the back-up. They only used a male for the introductory part. A student group also attempted to do the skit that term (and had it down - the difference was that they would sing it) for the Talent Show, but it was squashed as it was similiar to the Staffs' lip sync.Īt Duke East Term II 2004, a group of six girls did this for the lip sync. Some of tthe staff did this at the lip sync at term I at Davidson as well. There are choreographed bits at the beginning and end that also benefit from chairs.Īt Davidson Term II 2005, some of the staff did this at the lip sync. The sketch is better done with chairs for the Murderesses who are not dancing.

They each tell their story (Pop kills her husband, who pops gum, Six dates a mormon who had 6 wives, Squish kills her husband, who accuses her of cheating, Uh-Uh is an innocent hungarian ballerina, Cicero's husband cheats on her with her sister, and Lipschitz's boyfriend also cheats on her) and then procede to tango with their partner (Or in Uh-Uh's case, she dances around him). There is more than one way of performing it.

The Cell Block Tango has 6 female characters, whose names are Liz, Annie, June, Hunyak, Velma, and Mona but are commonly referred to as Pop, Six, Squish, Uh-Uh, Cicero, and Lipschitz.
