Who are CABAL?
CABAL is a character comedy team at the Upright Citizens Brigade in New York, gathering writer-performers whose credits run through Just for Laughs, the Second City, The New Yorker, The Daily Show and SNL. Each member works alone on stage, so a CABAL night is a run of solo sketches and invented characters rather than ensemble scenes; its festival bill teases the sort of people who might turn up, from a would-be gay pop idol to the heroine of a steamy romantasy novel. Chine Ikoro, a UCB mainstage performer, plays with the team as one of the theatre's house character teams. CABAL opened the 2026 New York Comedy Festival at UCB on 6 November in a Best of NY Characters show. [1][2]
