Mo Fathelbab

Mo is a proud product of the UCBT Training Center, having studied improv & sketch techniques under Julie Brister, Owen Burke, Curtis Gwinn, Peter Gwinn, Michael Delaney, Billy Merritt, Kevin Mullaney, Ian Roberts, Katie Roberts & Matt Walsh. On the UCBT NY stage, he's been seen in such shows as "The After School Super Power Hour", "The Documentary", "The Holiday Spectacular", "Human Jack-in-the-Box" (directed by Matt Walsh), "The Iron Sheikh & Friends" (which he also wrote), and "Mock the Vote" (which he also co-created). He also helps put together "Liquid Courage", the weekly open mic show for sketch writers, and is a part of the UCBW stable of colorful wrestlers. As director, he's helmed "The Goods are Odd" (Official Selection of the 2006 NYC Fringe Festival) and co-directed "Vincent Price Jr. Present..." with Curtis Gwinn. He has also written and directed a handful of short films, and once spent some time as a script doctor in Egypt. And when he's not on stage, he's either managing or teching a show (Nominee - 2005 ECNY Award for Best Tech Person) at UCBT NY.
