*Read as 1950's radio presenter* A show that dives into its genre like a dame into danger and grabs the audience with real gusto, see. Great Detectives: Heist, Camera, Action! is a swell night out for lovers of vintage crime, theatrical flair and a good old-fashioned whodunit, with sharp vocal character work giving every scene its own colour and a cast whose sparkling chemistry keeps the whole caper humming. *Cease reading as a 1950's radio presenter* ⭐⭐⭐⭐1/2 Fringe Benefit…

Tayla in Oz is a delightful little cabaret with a tremendous amount of heart. Tayla Alexander shares her and her family's journey from South Africa to Australia with warmth, humour, big smiles and confident vocals, weaving in songs from The Wizard of Oz and Wicked. This is the kind of show Fringe should be about: a snapshot into a talented young artist’s world, and a generous reminder you d…

Anthony Bourdain wrote about Waffle House with the kind of admiration that Adelaidians talk about Rhino Room: a bright, unpretentious refuge where you can walk in at any day and be taken care of. Rhino Room Late Show, indeed, Rhino Room as a whole, carries that same warm-beacon energy. It’s a place of safety and nourishment for Fringe nights when you’re a bit inebriated, when you want to keep t…

Sumazing! Part sumo, part sumo tragic comedy, part sumo child beat-down. Fun for the whole family. If you don’t like performers at the top of their game in revealing attire, that rules out at least half of the Fringe. These guys are the real deal and they put on a hell of a show. Watching sumo, like most sport, hits hardest live. It’s fast, physical, and over before you can blink, with the kind of stakes that feel high even when you’re laughing. The athletes are sillier than I expec…

Clown is my favourite kind of show. You never quite know what you’re going to get, and it’s always a little bit of a gamble, but that’s the point. The best clown shows have real risk, and Mel McGlensey absolutely puts herself at the mercy of the crowd. But make no mistake she controls the chaos. Normal is a brilliantly built premise: Mel is trapped in a simulation and can only escape if she can…
