Blog Archive Beyond the MBA Classroom Parody and Performance at HBS
Blog Archive Beyond the MBA Classroom Parody and Performance at HBS When you select an MBA program, you are not just choosing your learning environment, but are also committing to becoming part of a community. Each Thursday, we offer a window into life âbeyond the MBA classroomâ at a top business school. First presented in 1974, the HBS Show is a popular student-run comedy production that follows in the tradition of Harvard Collegeâs Hasty Pudding Show and Harvard Law Schoolâs Parody. This extremely well-attended show is a major production that pokes fun at life at Harvard Business School, incorporating jokingâ"but good-naturedâ"references to case protagonists, professors, administrators and the recruiting process. A spouse of one HBS student who helped organize the 2012 production wrote in her blog, âIt was a great outlet for business school students to roast their own schoolâ"the whole performance was based on The Godfather but with a zillion HBS inside jokes thrown in.â Featured among the HBS Show film productions in 2013 was a parody of Mean Girls titled âMean Boys Girls,â which depicted humorous âcliquesâ of business school students.
