I'm needing some ideas for my school's talent show or lip sync contest that usually happens in winter or spring. I highly doubt I'd get on stage alone. So I'm either thinking of doing a duet or a group project.
Idea #1: Geek Culture and Nerdom: A friend and I have would attempt to sing "Yakko's World" and "Wakko's States" in homeroom,and Tom Lehrer songs with a friend in gym class. So this could be fun to do. It's not really for entertainment purposes,but just to show how much we embrace our "geekdom" or how great memory can be. You can memorize all the songs of your favorite artist and piano music by ear. But can you retain and sing 180+ digits of pi?

Wakko's States: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNUDDaEOvuY
Pi Song: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRkcGPRXux4
I think this would require four to five people. One person to sing the first part, someone to do the rap portion and the two/three to sing off the numerical value. Tricky!
Idea #2: Sketch Comedy/Improv/Internet/Broadway: Another group idea. This would be perfect for the lip sync contest. One idea is to do something from Avenue Q or do the autotuned glory that is ATTN (Auto Tune The News). We'd need a lot of people for it,but it would be interesting to try.

(If ATTN would be too hard,then another autotune classic like Bed Intruder. It could be an inside joke for the few people that know it. It would be more succesful at a gaming place I go to,where memes are everywhere)
So I'm not 100% sure.
Something embracing my (and some friends') nerd joy or doing a silly group idea like Autotune The News?
