Mee-Ow meets The Beatles this weekend!

Mee-Ow just keeps coming up with more and more witty titles and themes for their shows, and the theme of their Winter mainstage is no different. "Dr. Pepper's Homely Joke Brigade," referring to the Beatles' infamous album, is a variety show consisting of quick improvisations, a brief sketch comedy, and "rock and roll" musical numbers. The audience plays a key role in their show by coming up with the most ridiculous topics to start their improv from.


As North by Northwestern best puts it, Mee-Ow is "Northwestern's only short-form improvisational troupe, and is a group of eight undergrads who are talented enough to meet the group's triple-threat standards." It's no wonder that they've turned Northwestern grads into famous comedians like Kirsten Schaal (from Flight of the Conchords).

If you're up for a fun night of British accents and awkward dancing, you should check out Mee-Ow in Dr. Pepper's Homely Joke Brigade this weekend in Norris' Louis Room.
