Description
Philly Sketchfest 2026 is proud to present ASSSSKETCH NYC and Septar!
Experience ASSSSKETCH, the premier sketch comedy troupe from the legendary Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in New York featuring talent from “The Chair Company,” “And Just Like That,” “Only Murders In The Building,” “Gossip Girl,” and “Watch What Happens Live” as they bring their uproarious fan-favorite show to Philadelphia to share their fast-paced, pop-culture addled, brain-bending sketches packed with hilarious jokes, outlandish characters, and musical numbers worthy of Broadway, but forced to serve sketch comedy. The sketch sister to the celebrated long-running improv show, ASSSSCAT, ASSSSKETCH has been selling out weekend shows in New York for a year!
Septar is a Philadelphia-based sketch comedy team brought together through their collective appreciation of the 90’s, pop culture, and public transit. Formed in 2023, its members joined forces from a variety of comedy disciplines such as stand-up, improv, musical theater, and satire writing for publications such as The Hard Times and The Onion. They’ve performed around the country, including San Francisco Sketchfest and Denver Sketchfest. Come forget your worries, sit your butts down, and get your nostalgia on!
