Two friends decide to follow their dream of creating an amazing sketch show! But among the several costume changes, the
squirting citrus, the '80s aerobics, and the magic mike strip routines...they realise their dream might be a little out
of reach.
It's comedy, it’s burlesque, it's slap stick, it's heartfelt...it's harder than they thought. A sketch show for those
who question what they are doing with their lives and then do it anyway.
Sweaty Pits may be the new kids on the block but they are taking off with a bang! The comedy duo debuted their first
show, “Pity Party”, at the 2018 Sydney fringe festival where they won the "New Zealand Tour Ready Award", were nominated
for "Best Comedy" at the 2018 Melbourne Fringe Festival and now they are coming to Adelaide!
Frankie McNair and Miriam Slater decided to combine their true loves (comedy and each other) in 2016 and give birth to
the sketch comedy duo “Sweaty Pits”. They aim to make change by screaming about the issues they care about with a
positive, absurdist, and energetic energy and hope to leave the audience with a belly full of laughs as well as a
message.
"It’s inventive, it’s genuinely funny, it’s relatable and – crucially – bears an uncompromising social message" -
FestMag, 2019
"Comic geniuses...Totally absurdist, feminist, meta, with lots of postmodern reflection" - Across The Aisle, 2018
"Sweaty Pits are on a f*king mission to pussy whip you into seeing the world with their unique brand of chaos and teach
you a f*cking thing about equality on the way." - Sydney Arts Guide, 2018
