What is Amuse Bouche?

Amuse Bouche is UVA's premiere longform improv comedy troupe, founded in 2007 by Saturday Night Live alumnus Sasheer Zamata. We are called "Amuse Bouche" because that was the word of the day on January 14, 2007!

Improv? Longform improv? What are you going on about?

Improv

Improv is a performing art where everything is improvised based on an initial prompt from the audience. Longform improv is a type of improv that prioritizes overarching plot lines, characters, and themes throughout a form's duration.

This all sounds awesome. How do I join?

I'm glad you asked! We hold auditions at the start of every semester. Look out for us at the fall/spring activities fair and follow us on Instagram (@amusebouchecomedy) for audition information.
