After multiple sold-out Fringe festival runs across North America, the internationally acclaimed, 3x Canadian Comedy Award-winning sketch duo Peter N’ Chris return to the Toronto Fringe Festival to premiere their newest show, A PETER N' CHRIS’TMAS CAROL, with seven (7) performances at the Tarragon Theatre Main stage!
This hilarious send up of the classic Dickens' Christmas story delivers the ultimate Christmas highlight reel: a grumpy Chris, busy ghosts, dangerous snowmen, and maybe even some shout-outs to throwback movies of Christmas’ passed.
So get ready to turn that Christmas sweater into a Christmas crop-top*, because the Peter N’ Chris’tmas Carol will be the hottest Christmas show of the summer! (*Christmas sweaters encouraged, but crop-tops would be hilarious too!)

ABOUT PETER N’ CHRIS
Peter N’ Chris (Peter Carlone and Chris Wilson) are a 3x Canadian Comedy Award-winning sketch duo who have toured and performed in Fringe and comedy festivals across Canada and the US.
Over the past eight (8) years, Peter N’ Chris (originally from Vancouver, BC) have won ‘Best of the Fest’ awards in every single Fringe Festival city they’ve performed in. Their fast-paced, cinematic, and extremely physical style pushes comedic theatre to its limits, earning them multiple sold-out Fringe runs, 5-star reviews, festival favourite accolades and awards, as well as the reputation as Canada’s most prolific live comedy duo.
They’re a recurring act in such acclaimed comedy festivals as Just For Laughs, JFL42, JFL Northwest, as well as sketch festivals including San Francisco, Chicago, Montreal, and Toronto (where, as feature performers two years running, they earned back-to-back ‘Audience Choice’ awards).
As writers, Pete and Chris are also contributors to CBC Radio 1’s sketch comedy show The Irrelevant Show, CBC Punchline (CBC Comedy), have contributed video content to the massive comedy website College Humor, and were writers on the Vine web-series White Ninja, starring FX’s Paul Scheer.
