Performed by founding Upright Citizens Brigade members Matt Besser, Ian Roberts, Horatio Sanz and Matt Walsh along with Andy Daly, Asssscat is the UCB’s long-form take on Del Close’s Harold form. It begins with a suggestion of a single word from the audience. From there, one performer improvises a monologue, which plants the seeds for the cast to build a series of interlocking, improvised scenes. The show follows a loose structure where character and story are instantly created, resulting in a surprisingly fresh, mysteriously interconnected and hilarious piece of improv comedy that can never be performed the same way twice. The Upright Citizens Brigade (Matt Besser, Amy Poehler, Ian Roberts, and Matt Walsh) came to New York, from Chicago, in 1996. After staging their award winning sketch comedy show and introducing their critically acclaimed brand of cutting-edge improvised comedy to New York audiences they founded the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre now located at 307 W 26th Street in Chelsea. In 2005, the UCB Theatre opened a second venue in Los Angeles located at 5919 Franklin Avenue in Hollywood. UCB Theatre features some of the best comedy through both venues seven nights a week. In addition to the popular live entertainment UCB Theatre also operates one of the largest comedy Training Centers in the world with students appearing on and writing for stage, television and major motion picture productions and the Internet.
