    About This Event

    Eric Feurer brings his character-driven work to Characters Welcome at UCB Theatre, presenting a series of distinct personas shaped by his roots in the downtown improv and sketch scene. He favors specificity and small behavioral details over volume, producing comedy that reads as observed rather than announced.

    About Characters Welcome

    Characters Welcome is a live comedy event currently running at UCB Theatre in New York City, featuring performer Eric Feurer. The show treats character work as a practice rather than a gimmick, using short scenes and transformations to test how quickly an audience can accept a new premise. UCB has long served as a proving ground for downtown comedy, and this fits that lineage of ensemble-driven experimentation. The earned observation is simple: the piece pays closest attention to timing, not punchlines, and that choice shapes its tone.
