Bloomers is Penn's sketch comedy group for ABCDs (anyone but cis dudes!). We write and produce sketch comedy both on stage and in the digital format.
The heart of Bloomers has long been its completely student-run productions. Currently, Bloomers shows are held in October and March. Our shows are composed of completely new material, written by each year’s group of Bloomers, and often have an overarching theme. Join any one of our 6 sections to help us create our shows!
Our Cast choreographs, directs, and performs an original SNL-esque sketch comedy show each Fall and Spring. Band arranges and performs songs during the shows, as well as at outside formals and parties. Writing ideates our show concepts and digital content scripts from the ground up. Tech constructs immersive sets while managing light and sound design. Costumes designs all character attire from ‘Camp Counselor 2’ to a life-size Penn Quaker mascot costume. And Biz (Business) manages all things production - from finances to graphic design.
