Welcome to the world's most dangerous Improv show, where two mighty teams of gladiators will take the stage to prove who is the best of the best. This is not an exhibition. This is a no-holds-barred competition. The audience determines the winner each week via secret ballot. The winner returns the following week to defend their title against a new challenger. Thursday's at 11 pm

| How to Apply for CageMatch December 30, 2011 |
| The CageMatch season will include one slot for every UCB house team. Throughout the year, we also make room for slots for indie teams. To apply for one of these slots send an email to cagematchnyc at gmail _dot_ com. List your team name and every member on the team. All team members must have completed UCB 401. We prefer to book teams that are currently practicing and doing shows and that are not "side projects" for most of the performers involved. Some tips: **Link to your group's Improvteams.com profile **Submit just your main team rather than every team you are on **Teams with smaller casts are less likely to get booked. Two reasons for this-- 1) we'd rather give the opportunity to more people 2) small casts tend to have schedule issues because it's more important for each member to be available. **You only need to email once per year to be considered. We pick the lineup each month from the full pool of submissions. We get tons of submissions, so understand we won't have room for everyone and it may take several months to get booked. **Another route into CageMatch for an indie team is to compete in Indie CageMatch at UCB East. If an indie team wins 3 consecutive shows there, they will be booked at CageMatch. |

| CageMatch Reservation Policy October 11, 2010 |
| To try to combat a recent trend of teams making an excessive number of reservations for their own show, UCB is implementing a new policy for CageMatch reservations:
"Competing CageMatch teams cannot make reservations for their own show. They are competing. Their fans need to make their own reservations. Additionally, all reservations must arrive together. So if a team makes a reservation under a fake name for 10 people and one person shows up to claim a ticket from that reservation, even if they don't buy all 10 tickets, that reservation will be dead. So anyone else who shows up trying to claim the same reservation will have to go to the stand-by line. If 10 people do show up together, then that's just fine with us." |
