Sicked
Please join us for an unforgettable performance as Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine proudly presents Doc Opera 2025: Sicked on Saturday, Dec. 13, at John Hay High School. Now in its 41st year, Doc Opera is an annual fundraiser and variety show written, choreographed, directed and starring students from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine health professional programs, including its Western Reserve Curriculum, the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine, and the Medical Scientist Training Program. Students and faculty from these graduate programs create a memorable night of live entertainment through skits, musical performances and dances about medicine and healthcare, all for the benefit of CWRU student-run health clinics.
The evening includes a 50/50 raffle and a silent auction made possible with the support of students, faculty, local businesses and other generous donors.

Our Mission
In keeping with CWRU’s commitment to give back to the community, Doc Opera is a fundraising event for CWRU’s student-run health clinics, including the Student Run Health Clinic and the newly established Horizons Community Clinic.
Our Doc Opera mission is to raise money so that the university's student-run health clinics can continue to provide much-needed healthcare services to those in our local community, regardless of their ability to pay.
Due to increasing popularity and the addition of a livestream of the show, attendance in recent years has reached over one thousand guests, which has allowed us to donate tens of thousands of dollars. We are incredibly grateful for the donations and support we have received from our audiences and from the wide array of local small businesses and corporate entities.
Show Details
This year’s live show is on Saturday, Dec. 13, in the John Hay High School Auditorium. The silent auction begins at 5:30 p.m. and curtain is at 6:30 p.m. There will be livestream access to the show for those who cannot attend in person.

Meet the Directors
With approximately 200 students from CWRU’s MD University Program, Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine and the Medical Scientist Training Program taking part, Doc Opera requires intensive planning and teams of volunteers working throughout the year. When Doc Opera 2025: Sicked debuts on Dec. 13, it will be due in part to the hard work of many student directors and their teams.
