The sexy tigresses of men in drag were founded in 1998 by women who were looking for a sassier approach to all female a cappella groups. In their ten years at the U of C, they have become famous (infamous?) for their wacky song choices and innovative staging. They have recorded 5 CD's: We Have Lost Cabin Pressure, Not Just Some Guy In A Basement Anymore, Philosophy of Etiquette, Perfectly Aligned, and the most recent Always Check the Elevator.
