SWOMO (AKA: Swolen Monkey Showcase)

I’m currently co-president of SWOMO, Emerson College’s only longform improv AND sketch troupe! After auditioning my first semester freshman year, I’ve overseen the production of three hour-long shows each semester for a packed audience from conception to completion. Besides performing on stage, I also manage the troupe by scheduling auditions, organizing rehearsals, booking venues, and promoting shows on social media.

Swomo has been a mainstay in the Emerson comedy scene since it’s founding in 1985! Some notable alumni include Anthony Atamunik (Broad City, 30 Rock, The President Show) and Daniel Scheinert (Swiss Army Man, Everything Everywhere All At Once). Follow our instagram to see our show dates as well as audition information!

I’ll be in The Improv Experience, directed by Erin Schwall. It is led by ensemble of student performers who will spend the semester working on character, genre, game, and both short and long form improv.
