Fearsome is a Man's Best Friend

Fearsome has been crafting smart, saucy and energetic sketch comedy for several years now. With a flair for nimble wordplay, dirty songs and visual gags, they're one of the most physically confidant sketch groups you're likely to see. And their new show "Fearsome...and such" makes the best use yet of that intuitive bravado. The show has a relaxed feel, yet the group takes more chances than ever, occasionally revisiting earlier sketches and capping them off with darker, more wince-inducing punchlines. Building off the ease and familiarity that the six performers have developed on stage, "Fearsome...and such" floats effortlessly through duels, keg parties, make-out sessions and gynecological exams without missing a beat. There are moments in this show where trust is paramount: a confusing scene could spin out of control, someone could actually get hurt, the name of a middle-eastern terrorist could be horribly mispronounced. But like a competitive cheerleading squad that's just thrown it's cutest, tiniest member thirty feet in the air, Fearsome is at its best when its not worried about landing on its head, breaking its neck and showing the world its bloomers.

You can catch "Fearsome...and such" on Fridays at 8:00pm in November and December at The PIT. Remaining shows: Nov. 11, 18 & Dec. 2, 9, 16
