NYC Sketch Group Uncle Function to Celebrate 7th Anniversary With Show at Asylum NYC  Image

Uncle Function, "one of NYC's premier sketch comedy troupes" (Broadwayworld.com) returns to Asylum NYC, Friday, April 8th at 7:30pm after their SOLD-OUT March show. The Uncles are back with their unrivaled brand of original sketch comedy, and will be joined by very special guests, including Guest Uncle Amanda Corday (Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) and a special performance by Randy Feltface (Just for Laughs).

For the last seven years, Uncle Function has performed sold-out runs at several of NYC's most storied comedy institutions, including the UCB Theater and People's Improv Theater. They've been joined by numerous special guests, including Chloe Fineman (SNL), John Early (Search Party), Gary Richardson (SNL), Jelani Remy (Ain't Too Proud/B'way), Ana Fabrega (Los Espookies/HBO) and many more!

Uncle Function's performance will take place at Asylum NYC - 307 West 26th Street New York, NY. The show is open to anyone with proof of vaccination. Tickets are $20, and can be purchased here:

Uncle Function has been hailed as "one of the smartest, silliest, and most seductively satisfying shows around!" by BroadwayWorld.com. NY TheatreGuide has warned: "You really need to take the opportunity to see this group before the apocalypse happens."

Uncle Function is a sketch comedy group based in New York City. It was formed in 2015 with the help of Tony Award-winning producer Ken Davenport (Kinky Boots, Once On This Island ). Uncle Function is written by and features Chris Cafero (Inventing Anna/Netflix, The Other Two/Comedy Central), Russell Daniels (UCB Maude Night) , Jessica Frey (The Characters/Netflix), Douglas Goodhart ("Discover Card Guy"), Gianmarco Soresi (Hustlers, Deception/ABC), and new cast member Joseph Lymous (Just For Laughs, Comedy Central).

Since their inception, The Uncles have performed at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater (UCB), Davenport Theatre, Broadway Comedy Club, The Tank Theater, Ensemble Studio Theatre and The Peoples Improv Theater. They have headlined Toronto Sketch Festival and NYC SketchFest. Their work has been featured on ABC, Funny or Die, HuffPost, and more. These Uncles, just like your real uncles, will make you laugh, cry, think, feel moderately uncomfortable and then send you back to your parents, forever changed.
