Feathertree Arts - Sketches

Feathertree Arts' sketches work with absurdity and confusion to challenge perspective and make room for difference. This is British comedy at its most ridiculous; dark, sharp, surreal, and nothing like you expect. If you love sketch comedy like Monty Python, Smith and Jones, The Day Today, French and Saunders, The Mighty Boosh, or The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, then this is for you. Simple sets and simple concepts, no frills, some spills, and absolutely no Hollywood glitz or Netflix spritz. Just ridiculous laughs and delightfully weird twists.

Written by CJ Harrington & Cheryl-Anne Fries (with occasional guest writers). Performed by Ryan Cross, David Naylor & Eastin Kandt. Produced by CJ Harrington, David Naylor & Elian Beaumont. Directed by Tom Lee. Cinematography by Elian Beaumont. Sound, Lighting & Photography by Ellie Salt. Edited by Jesse Pollard & Chris Harrington. Props and Costumes by Jacqui Divkey-Wells & David Naylor.

Dark, unsettling, and just the right amount of ridiculous, welcome to Real Lieves with Dr. Fareetal. The only show brave (or stupid) enough to sit down with Hugeo Pegee and pick apart the tragic downfall of the Pegee family. What starts as a harrowing tale of neglect, guilt, and unspeakable loss quickly takes a bizarre and deeply uncomfortable turn. A raw, unflinching ... and surreal look at childhood trauma, if that childhood happened to belong to an unlucky pig in a nursery rhyme. There’s family drama, desperate confessions, unexpected footwear-related developments, and a shockingly grim fate for the baby of the bunch. Watch now, but maybe keep your shoes on.

Step inside the mind of a crime lord like no other: The Mad Pope of Nottingham. A confused and frustrated interviewer meets a convict on his first day out of jail and the conversation spirals into absolute absurdity as an ex-choirboy recounts his rise to power. Is it a gritty exposé, or the ramblings of a lunatic? Is it religious satire, or just an extremely dodgy retelling of a career in organised crime? Who knows! But there’s some very unsettling implications, and possibly the strangest gangster origin story you’ll ever hear. Watch now, before the Pope finds you.

Pitch In

Ever feel like uttering the simplest phrase could land you in a world of trouble? This sketch, from our series Potentially Offensive Words, dives headfirst into the surprising social minefield that is saying "hotdog". We explore the shocking reasons why this seemingly innocent foodstuff has the power to offend everyone. From the unexpectedly rude first syllable to the deeply divided opinions on our furry friends (and their potential temperature!), prepare for a comedy tutorial on linguistic danger. Discover why dog lovers might just smash your car window and why some people recoil in horror at the mere mention of a canine. It's a risky business, this hot dog lark. Maybe just... don't say it. Expect absurd situations, visual gags, and the dawning realisation that maybe, just maybe, some phrases are best left unspoken.
