About The Whethermen
Founded in 1997, the Whethermen are the University of Virginia's oldest performing improv comedy group. This premier group formed after several performance-inclined students witnessed improv shows from other schools in a coffee shop (where Boylan Heights stands today) and decided that UVA needed an improv group of its own. Today, the Whethermen specialize in both long and short form improv, with scenes ranging anywhere from 5-30 minutes long. The Whethermen perform two major shows per semester at UVA as well as numerous other gigs, workshops, and intermissions throughout the year. We also perform at festivals at colleges all across the United States. Don't ask us if it's going to rain. We don't know either.
Arts on the Hill
Arts on the Hill is a recurring event on Carr's Hill featuring artists and scholars from our faculty and student body and visiting artists and scholars from around the globe. Our President hosts guest during the academic year for performances and discussions around the Arts at UVA!!
