Meet Zach Schwartz, Co-President of Liquid Fun
Zach Schwartz knew he loved the performing arts. He performed in his high school theater group, knew he could memorize a script, and knew exactly what to do on stage. Improv comedy was another matter.
When Schwartz (COM‘25) arrived at BU, a [...]friend encouraged him to join Liquid Fun, which bills itself as BU’s premier improv comedy troupe. He admits he spent his first freshman semester trying to muster up the courage to go on stage. “I was terrified,” he says. But when he finally got up on stage the following semester, he was instantly hooked: “I loved it.”
Schwartz has been with the group ever since, and this year is club copresident.
“Liquid Fun has changed my college experience,” Schwartz says. “I hate to use the word tremendously, but it’s true. I think it was probably the best decision I’ve ever made at BU.”
Now, as a senior and the troupe’s copresident, Schwartz says he hopes to foster an environment where students can feel comfortable putting themselves out there. His goal: offering the BU community the opportunity to try their hand at improv, even if they’re nervous.
“I want to live my life in a way that gives back to people, and I think art can do that,” he says. “I think there are so many art forms that are beautiful and that help people so often.”
