SKETCH // FREE PARKING

Austin Sketch Fest is 2 back-to-back weekends of sketch comedy gold August 14 – 23 at ColdTowne Theater. ASF showcases the best scripted comedy from Austin and the wilderness beyond.

A TIME TO KILL Comedians from The Daily Show, The Tonight Show, and more of the best comedians in New York City come together for “Time to Kill: A Sketch Comedy Show!” Time to Kill’s show is like watching an episode of SNL, but *live* in a theater in your city…and much more unhinged. Time to Kill was rec’d by Time Out NY as “one of the best things to do in NYC” and the NY Times rec’d the show as “What to Do in NYC.”

FATHER FIGURES presents: a preview of their upcoming mainstage show Be Fucking For Real, an irreverent excavation of the systems, social performances, and deeply convincing bullshit we’ve all somehow agreed to participate in, taking a sharp look at the forces shaping how we see ourselves and each other. It’s about the people who want to be good but would also like credit for it. The people selling masculinity, enlightenment, self-optimization, and birth charts back to us at a premium, who have turned authenticity into a brand. And all of us trying to figure out how to be honest in a culture that keeps inventing new ways to bullshit ourselves. Written and Performed by Ananya Roy, Josh Varelas, Kyle Irion, Logan Lasiter, Martha Neil, Michael Nottebart, Sean Gubtosi, and Syd Goin Technical Direction: Alyssa Tucker Directed by: Dave Buckman
