The Mee-Ow Show is the longest-running university student written and produced improv, sketch comedy, and music show in the United States.[1] Shows are produced annually by students at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. It was founded in 1974[2] by two students: Paul Warshauer and Josh Lazar. The original Mee-Ow Show, "Just in Time", was the first performance in the newly constructed McCormick Auditorium in Norris University Center (Northwestern's student union).
The show has been a significant part of the Northwestern theater and comedy scene ever since. In 2024 The Mee-Ow Show ensemble celebrates its 50th anniversary.[3]
