Huggable Riot will kick off its annual Summer of Sketch series with the opening of its 17th original production, Honesty is the Best Fallacy, which begins a six-week run Wednesday, May 2 at The Annoyance Theatre and Bar in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood.

This hour-long, original sketch revue explores the idea of finding and expressing truth, worts and all. From the far-reaching and political to the deeply personal, these characters proclaim their truth loudly. Boldly. Through a microphone. Scenes vary from an artist who expresses themselves through an unconventional medium to a contestant with revolutionary ideas on The Great Russian Bake Off to a more tender examination of what you would say if you could talk to your thirteen-year-old self.

“It feels like we're really starting to hit our stride,” says director Hunter Larrison. “This show in particular feels like we're challenging ourselves like never before - challenging the form of sketch comedy, and what it can be. This show has scenes that are stylized, political, musical, gross, emotional, and sometimes just flat out weird. Trying to best guide the audience through that experience and trying to craft the show into something greater than the sum of its parts, has been a welcome challenge.”
