Meet Riley, a senior majoring in Neurobiology. Riley is incredibly honored and excited for the opportunity to be a part of Humo’s return to the big stage as Executive Producer.

Marley eats, sleeps, dreams, breathes, and bleeds Humo and absolutely cannot wait to return to the big stage in the spring.

Music Chair - [email protected]Josh Schwarz
Meet Josh- Excited but bittersweet for his last year in Humorology, Joshua Schwarz is continuing to devote himself to his role as Music Director. Enrolled in choir and band since fourth grade and a self-proclaimed thespian since seventh grade, Josh has been happy to entrench himself in Humo, both as a performer and eventual music director for his TATAS and DADS casts. Although he has only taken the stage as an ensemble member, Josh’s chance to perform in “Alice in Madtown” as the head of a four-man nightmarish snake is among his favorite memories and he hopes to make many more this year! Josh is excited for Humo’s return to the stage and is anxiously awaiting to present our first in-person show since 2019!

Dance Chair - d[email protected]Dylan Maskell
Meet Dylan! A senior majoring in Human Development and Family studies with a certificate in Disability Rights and Services on a pre-dental track. Her goal is to someday be a dentist for individuals with disabilities! She is so excited to put her passion for dance to good use as the Executive Dance Director to help raise money for the Respite Center. Two things Dylan loves are dancing and giving back to her community. For as long as she can remember she has found ways to get involved within her community through volunteer work and other philanthropic efforts. She has also been competing in dance since she was in eighth grade, so finding Humorology was the best way for her to continue to combine those two passions. Freshman year, she won the "Best Dance" award in all of Humorology after being a lead dancer in her show "Once Upon a Dating App." In her sophomore year, she directed "What Dreams Are Made Of," and despite not being able to put on a show, she won the "Best Choreography" award. You can most likely find her dancing around her kitchen, studying for her next science exam that is probably a month away, or listening to songs that would be perfect for a Humo show! She is extremely excited to take on another role in Humorology and support everyone in their 2021-2022 Humo endeavors!
