SYLVIE BORSCHEL
first half
I was born near the Eiffel Tower, didn't get to keep any French citizenship and was raised in Springfield, VA. I've lived many lives (which makes fun facts easy at work): All-American NCAA Division I gymnast at Temple University, professional Blackjack dealer in Philly for 2 years, and almost threw both those things away to become a professional Alto-Saxaphone player.
A NYC-based performer, I've performed live improv, character comedy, stand up and sketch comedy at Union Hall, the Comedy Cellar, Fat Black Pussycat, Littlefield, Asylum NYC, UCB, Brooklyn Comedy Collective, Club Cumming, Caveat and just about every bar in Brooklyn. I wrote, directed and performed a character-based solo show about my time as a blackjack dealer. The show was selected for Caveat's 2023 Projectorfest and Brooklyn Comedy Collective's 2024 Pitchfest. My improv team Go Dummy, fresh off their 11-0 UCB Cage Match win, has a show the first Saturday of every month at BCC w/ Full of Bones. I'm currently performing on UCB Harold Night w/ house team suckdog.
