Comedy Corner

Comedy Corner is a weekly student-run comedy troupe at the University of Arizona in Tucson with roots going back to 1979. The core group consists of about 10-14 regular writers and performers. Comedy Corner is the nation's oldest college sketch and improv comedy group. The group also produces comedy shorts frequently and screens them at their live shows, as well as local film festivals. Comedy Corner is the first documented college sketch comedy troupe to incorporate improvisation into its weekly shows, a practice that has become more common in recent years.
