SketchFest Seattle was the world’s original sketch comedy festival and has established a reputation for presenting the best and most original comedy from around the globe. We have a very liberal interpretation of what it means to do sketch comedy, so if you think what you do might be sketchy, bring it on.
1) Post a 10-15 minute sample video of your work online. Video must show at least three sketches performed live, and preferably (but not necessarily) will be an unbroken portion of your show so that we can get a sense of how your show flows.
2) Email answers to the following questions to:
info@sketchfest.org
a) What is your group name?
b) What is the link to your sample video?
c) Primary contact name:
d) Primary contact phone# and email
e) Primary contact postal address
f) How many years has your group been performing together?
g) What venues and festivals has your group performed at?
h) Please include links to or attachments of any press that you have received.
