FEARSOME at SketchFestNYC

FEARSOME returns to SketchFestNYC, New York’s finest Sketch Comedy Festival, for the fifth year.   The festival takes place June 11-13, and features all star comedy from across North America, and once again FEARSOME has been selected to close out the entire weekend.

One of the best aspects of a festival like this is the wide variety of what constitutes sketch comedy all together in one venue, with each act carefully selected out of hundreds of submissions.   Purchase a pass for the entire weekend, or get a pass for just one night.

But if you only have time for one group, make it FEARSOME.
