Pear is the award-winning sketch comedy partnership of 6 foot 7 identical twin brothers Patrick and Hugo McPherson. Top Ten Best Reviewed shows of the Edinburgh Fringe 2024 and 2025. Following four sold-out Edinburgh Fringe Festivals in a row - 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.
