Pear: Phobia

Pear is the award-winning sketch comedy partnership of 6 foot 7 identical twin brothers Patrick and Hugo McPherson. Following sold-out Edinburgh Fringe Festivals in 2023, 2024, and 2025 - which included their first ever late hour across the weekends, sold-out Soho Theatre runs in 2024 and 2025 and sold-out, critically-acclaimed seasons at Perth Festival in Australia, Pear will be setting out on their first UK tour later this year. They were the Critics' Choice Award Winner at Perth Festival in 2023, were included in The Top Ten Best Reviewed Shows of Edinburgh Fringe 2024 and at this year's Edinburgh Fringe were the best selling sketch comedy act of the festival, selling over four and a half thousand tickets and were shortlisted for the ISH Edinburgh Comedy Awards.
