That would work as long as the game isn't scheduled for a Sunday because BYU (Mormons) never plays games on a Sunday.

EDIT: I recall that BYU was once placed in a Friday-Sunday portion of the "March Madness" bracket. The question on the sports news was "What happens if BYU wins?"
Checked the 1997 calendar, the Fiesta Bowl was played on Wednesday, January 1, 1997.

Please include some Shakespeare.

The 1996 production of Twelfth Night actually managed to pull off "opposite-sex identical twins" with unrelated people better than my twin sis and I can when she's pretending to be a guy.
I'll try to include some Shakespeare movies.

Plus, I'll be working on segments from the 1996 movie "Evita" with Madonna, Antonio Banderas, Jonathan Pryce and the Argentine movie "Eva Peron: The True Story" with Esther Goris.

I've never watched "Evita". Every time it came up as a suggestion of something to watch something else looked more interesting and got watched instead.

Not tipping my hand on the 1996 film "Evita", but let's just say Madonna gets her rightful honor in terms of an Oscar Award nomination for Best Actress (which I'll detail sometime this week).
For her role in "A League of Their Own"?

That should be Best Supporting Actress and she should lose to Rosie O'Donnell because Rosie managed to pull off "Athletic woman larger than most men" without relying on the fact that she actually that she actually is larger than most men:

'A League of Their Own' was from 1992.

Princess Nine is from 1998.


The actual Seira is 6'3" and was a really skinny shortstop - about 145lbs when dripping wet - with a batting average of "yes" back in '98.

Princess Nine enormously tones her down by making her expy 5'7" and 110lbs.
I didn't see it but I've been told that Seira once drew a 17-pitch lead-off walk against a former MLB pitcher. Something like that breaks the opposing bullpen before her quickness was taken into account. She'd be on 1st, 2nd, or 3rd about half time and looking to steal a base before the 2nd batter picked up the bat.
