2023 NYC Sketchfest

Sketchfest is back! The Peoples Improv Theater (The PIT) is excited to announce the 9th annual NYC Sketchfest and its first time back since 2019 (you know because of that pandemic thing). This is New York City’s premier sketch comedy festival and one of the nations largest. This year’s festival is focused on highlighting local, national, old, and new sketch teams and bringing them all together again! Over 50 sketch teams will be featured. The 2023 lineup includes: Murderfist Presents…, The HERlarious Show, The Chris & Paul Show, Girl Theory, Model Majority, Time to Kill, and more!

This 4-day sketch-tacular has programming that will not only include incredible sketch shows; but panel discussions that will explore the creative process, diversity, the business of sketch, and sketch as a tool for change; and writer’s rooms where you can come and get feedback on your own sketches or pitch some new ideas. Sketch and comedy lovers mark your calendars!
