New York’s premiere hip hop improv group since its start in 2009, is excited to announce additional acts performing at the inaugural North Coast Comedy Festival, October 5-10, 2021 in New York City. A 5$ opening night show with North Coast themselves, Will Hines performing with Connor Ratliff, and the self-proclaimed "gay church" that is Sparkle Hour with Philip Markle, are just a few of the newly announced acts poised to perform at this exciting, first-ever, North Coast Comedy Festival. The festival has also announced a full festival pass, available for $180 while they last.

Bringing together a diverse and eclectic group of performers from around the globe to celebrate and support the comedy industry that has suffered so much this past year, the festival will book 6 days of back-to-back improv, stand-up and sketch performances, with an emphasis on musical comedy.
