SF Sketchfest 2025

The place? The Wild West. The year… The Wild West. Come see as comedy trio Business Casual presents with their new show: COWBOYS!

Business Casual (@businesscasualcomedy) is a sketch comedy trio hailing from Los Angeles. The group consists of Jeremy Elder (@jeremyelderr), Cory Peter Lane (@corypeterlane), and Hunter Saling (@idealstepdad), all graduates from the UCLA School of Theater, Film, and Television. The trio embody a unique blend of physicality, absurdist sketch comedy, and clown. Or as one drunken woman in Louisville titled it: comedy rock n’ roll. 

Critics have called their previous works “physical comedy perfection” (Three Weeks), “beautifully absurd” (Radio Haha),  “sheer Fringe genius” (The Scotsman), and “an evening of stupidity you’ll be sure to remember” (Broadway World). 

COWBOYS most recently completed a limited Off-Broadway run at Asylum NYC. Previously, the show was presented as part of the Netflix is a Joke Festival and Moontower Comedy Festival, both to sold out audiences. Their previous show FERAL has been featured at the Moontower Comedy Festival, New York Comedy Festival, SF Sketch Fest, and the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe Festival (produced under the Stamptown banner).

The show tells the story of a gunslinging cowboy seeking revenge on the three men who killed his family. He must assemble a posse and set out on the journey of a lifetime. Along the way, the group encounter gold miners, snake oil salesman, and just about every Western trope you could think of. If you do think of a trope that they don’t mention, Business Casual kindly invites you to “keep it to yourself!”

Yeehaw pardner! Snake in my boot! Big pot of gold!
