FOIL, ARMS AND HOG 'SKITTISH' AUSTRALIAN AND NEW ZEALAND TOUR TICKETS 2025

All You Need To Know About Foil, Arms and Hog

Foil Arms and Hog, an Irish sketch comedy trio, comprises Sean 'Foil' Finegan, Conor 'Arms' McKenna, and Sean 'Hog' Flanagan. Known for their dynamic performances across TV, radio, stage, and online, they create and release a new sketch each week on YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram from their office. Their sketches, ranging from observational to topical, include popular pieces like 'When Irish People Can't Speak Irish' and 'WTF is Brexit.' The group tours extensively, primarily in Ireland and the UK, and has been a fixture at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe since 2009, with additional performances in North America, Australia, and Europe.

The trio’s name reflects the nicknames they’ve assigned themselves: Foil (Sean Finegan) serves as the comedy foil, Arms (Conor McKenna) is described as 'all arms and legs,' and Hog (Sean Flanagan) takes center stage.
The trio came together in 2008 at University College Dublin's drama society, where they were studying architecture, genetics, and engineering. Their mutual admiration for the TV show Father Ted and their shared passion for comedy led to their collaboration. They regard the post-financial crash era as a serendipitous moment, believing that if the Celtic Tiger economy had persisted, they might have been compelled to follow more traditional career paths rather than exploring their comedic aspirations.
