More about Sidecar!

Sidecar is a three-man improvisation and sketch group based in New York City. They have been performing together for a year and a half. Their brand of long-form improv lies between the Chicago and New York styles - Their performance and their teaching style focus on both character and relationship development (Chicago) as well as finding and playing the "game" or comedic dynamic of the scene (NYC). Sidecar's improv and sketch work is characterized by a mix of short and long dissimilar scenes that separate, converge and meld with one another over the course of the show. All three members of the team have completed the full curriculum of classes at the Upright Citizen's Brigade Theater in NYC.

Matt Fisher is a writer and performer in NYC. He began improvising at the tender age of fourteen and subsequently performed sketch and improv in all of the white-hot comedy meccas of New England: Providence, RI, Springfield, MA, Watertown, CT, and coastal Maine. After five years with his beloved Boston group, Improv Foundry, he moved to New York City in 2005, new bride in tow, to have a more Mid-Atlantic brand of comedy adventure.
