A Weekend of Tradition and Celebration

Master Follies and Royal Recognition

A highlight of the weekend will be Master Follies, a student-led variety show. This performance will showcase original musical presentations created by LCU’s men’s and women’s social club organizations. Student performers will emcee the shows, which feature choreographed routines and humorous lyrics as the groups compete for awards.
