Medics' Revues
It is a current and fairly longstanding tradition of Medical, Dental and Veterinary schools within the UK and Australia to put on revues each year, combining comedy sketches, songs, parodies, films and sound-bites.
Each year, the revue casts of each of the 5 medical schools of the United Hospitals compete in the competition known as the UH Revue in an attempt to win The Moira Stuart Cup. It has been won by all medical schools except Barts, with St George's knocking up the most victories, winning the trophy 5 times. As well as performing at their respective universities, shows will often be performed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The Cambridge Medics Revue, St George's Medics Revue, and Birmingham Medics Revues all performed at the 2008 Fringe Festival. The BSMS Medic Revue has performed sell out shows in the Brighton Fringe Festival since 2008. The Cambridge clinical school also now run a competing revue to the undergraduates, called variably Revue and Integration or Revue and Imitation.
