It is highly unlikely that those students who first donned drag and kicked up their heels in Old Nick’s first Uni Revue in 1948 Smokin Hot, could have imagined that they were part of what would become a Tasmanian institution.
For the last 75 years the most popular show in Tasmania has been the annual Uni Revue. Arguably the biggest in the southern hemisphere if not the world, it has launched careers, documented world and local events, terrorised political leaders, and kept Tasmanian audiences laughing with its toes over the edge, boundary-pushing, and at times slightly inappropriate satire and humour.
Join us for the 75th edition as we celebrate an icon of Tasmanian theatre and some of the legends and gags it created while trying to keep up with these ever-changing times.
When the newspaper fails and the TV too, you can always rely on a Uni Revue.
Director: Cassie Xintavelonis
