Equally physical and cerebral, the clever sketch trio Obscene But Not Heard explores many unusual concepts with high energy and tight thematic writing. Make it through the boring rip-off of Saturday Night Live’s intro for rewards like Hitler’s Return From Hell, U of
T students joining a campus terrorist group and the gothic and gory Circus of Pain.

EYE WEEKLY's Review
Laughs are sparse during this show from Calgary sketch troupe Obscene But Not Heard, which brashly tries to go where Borat much more successfully went before. Material that’s intended as over-the-top, I-can’t-believe-I’m-laughing-at-this humour comes out awkwardly. There are some funny moments and lively performances here, but the show suffers from tired jokes and loose writing that tries too earnestly to offend. Nicole Cohen
