95th Annual Waa-Mu Show: Dillo Day Disaster

95th Annual Waa-Mu Show: Dillo Day Disaster

Cahn Auditorium
600 Emerson Street Evanston

This year we bring back the longest running theatrical tradition at Northwetsern, and the largest student-written musical in the country, a tradition that predates modern broadway itself. When the biggest day of the year begins to unravel, students across campus are pulled into a fast-moving collision of ambition, chaos, and unexpected connection. Set over the course of one unforgettable musical festival, Dillo Day Disaster takes audiences on a whirlwind journey celebrating Northwestern traditions, campus culture, and the pressure-packed mythology of "the biggest day of the year". By turns hilarious, heartfelt, and spectacular, the show asks what it really means to be a hero when the plan falls apart and the spotlight doesn't shine the way you expected in an entirely original musical written and performed by undergraduate students.
