See a brand new sketch or solo show birthed right before your eyes that is auditioning for a run at the UCB theater.

It’s a show where we let sketch teams and solo performers try some shit out!

Some will be good, some will be bad but it will all be weird and new and that’s what makes it fun!

It’s experimental sketch at its finest! Come on, you know you need a spanking.

This Monday, we have…

DECKHAND: A two-person comedy set onboard a failing speedboat!

Joseph, an abrasive talent agent pushing 40, is awoken in the middle of the night to a call from his top-billing client. She’s on Catalina Island for a photoshoot without any of her wardrobe or glam. He arrives at the Lido Dry Stacks ready to set sail but waits on one last thing: his assistant, Fiona.

Fiona and Joseph embark on a tumultuous journey full of obstacles that challenge their already fragile relationship. Deckhand is a comedic look at the divide between agent and assistant. Focused around two careerists of different generations, genders, and social stratification to examine the deepening divide between employer and employee.

Deckhand debuted in June as part of the Hollywood Fringe festival to an overwhelmingly positive response.

Starring Grace Guy as Fiona and Christopher Cassarino as Joseph

Written by Grace Guy
