About

Twins is a sketch-comedy double-act written and performed by Jack Barry and Annie McGrath, two of the most laidback people you might never meet.

In Annie McGrath – every bit the cherubic churl – Twins has a unique and curiously endearing half. Never shy of dodging a predictable punch line, she is a fearless navigator of the offbeat. Beside her, Jack Barry takes gormlessness into new territory. Fuelled by flights of fancy, constant deviation, and spontaneous drollery, Barry is very much the natural humorist. Together, they form one of the most unique, charming and exciting new double-acts around.
