Since
opening in 1998, the Upright Citizens Brigade
Theatre has emerged as one of the premier comedy venues
in the country. The UCB Theatre is technically an alternative hotspot,
but actually programs more comedy and draws bigger crowds than mainstream
clubs. UCB performers and alumni have infiltrated every facet of the country's
comedy scene. From TV shows like Saturday Night Live, MadTV, Late Night
with Conan O'Brien, Comedy Central's Daily Show with Jon Stewart, MTV's
Boiling Points, VH1's Best Week Ever and A-Z, to films such as Road Trip,
Old School, Starsky & Hutch, Elf and Anchorman to countless national
commercials, you've seen UCB performers.
You know the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre. Now come see why they're the best. The Upright Citizens Brigade Touring Company brings the nation's hottest comedic talent together to perform NYC's most innovative sketch comedy featuring brand new material as well as UCBT classics - all topped off with a set of UCB patented wicked improv comedy - live for you. |
