FROM FACT TO FICTION
Any resemblance between this year's Campus Thunder production and a real life story is by no means a coincidence

Contrary to the tradition of past Thunder shows, this year's edition is NOT pure fictional folly, but has for its foundation a true tale.

For over two years Director Al Dickason watched his good friend, Mrs. Belly Sobel, in her long struggle to establish the adaptation of the Ballet tights as a new fashion for everyday wear. Inspired by her creation of "Leg-a-tees," Mr. Dickason conceived the idea for this year's edition of Campus Thunder
