Review: Confessions Club Vol. III 2026 Adelaide Fringe
•
★★★★★ The Adelaide Fringe has never been shy about late-night mischief, but Confessions Club Vol. III pushes past cheeky into something more theatrical. It’s sexy, yes, but it’s also surprisingly crafted. Beneath the kink and glitter sits a show about ownership of desire. The production returns to the Fringe after…

Review: Corpse by Kirsty Mann 2026 Adelaide Fringe
•
★★★★★ Ghost stories usually begin with a flicker of candlelight or a creaking door. Corpse, the new show from comedian Kirsty Mann, begins in darkness. Total darkness. Then something crawls. A figure moves slowly down the aisle between two rows of audience members. A long black wig trails across the…

Review: Murder, She Didn’t Write 2026 Adelaide Fringe
•
★★★★☆ Inside Gluttony’s Gosling tent, detective Agatha Crusty reclines on a chaise armchair with her nose buried in a book. It’s a neat piece of scene-setting. We are in the 1930s. Somewhere in the room lurks her Watson-like sidekick, Jerkins. The catch is that Jerkins has been undercover so long…

Review: Cadel – Lungs On Legs 2026 Adelaide Fringe
•
★★★★★ Sport and theatre rarely share the same stage. Funding debates rage. Value debates rage. Is art more important than sport? Does sport unite more than art? When the two worlds do collide, it is often through failure: the fallen star, the redemption arc, the cautionary tale. Cadel: Lungs on…

Review: Hannah Maxwell BABYFLEAREINDEERBAG 2026 Adelaide Fringe
•
★★★★★ BABYFLEAREINDEERBAG arrives in Adelaide after a sell-out run at Edinburgh Fringe. It has collected five-star reviews and a Weekly Best of Theatre Award. The premise is deceptively simple.

Review: Cyclops A Satyr Play 2026 Adelaide Fringe
•
★★★★☆ When the audience files into Judy’s Room at Holden Street Theatres, Silenus is already there. Or rather, sprawled there. Passed out on the floor. Empty cans of Prancing Pony IPA and Tiger Beer litter the stage. A karaoke screen glows on the wall. The machine is still switched on.…

Review: Twenty Sixteen at Gluttony 2026 Adelaide Fringe
•
★★★★★ In 2016, it felt like the music died. David Bowie. Prince. George Michael. Leonard Cohen. Sharon Jones. Maurice White. Leon Russell. It was a year of cultural aftershocks. Add Brexit and the election of Donald Trump and the mood darkened further. Ten years on, Twenty Sixteen dares to step…

Review: Time Goes By at Woodville 2026 Adelaide Fringe
•
★★★★☆ There is something comforting about a grandfather clock on stage. It promises structure. Rhythm. Time behaving itself. In Time Goes By, that promise lasts all of five minutes. The show opens in a smoky Chicago music hall of the Jazz Age. Costumes shimmer. Shoulders roll. The music swings. A…

Review: …Earnest? at Gluttony 2026 Adelaide Fringe
•
★★★★★ Oscar Wilde would have adored this chaos. Mistaken identity. Double lives. Social pretension. Air and graces. Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest has always been about performance. About whom we pretend to be. About the masks we wear to survive polite society. So it feels deliciously inevitable that Say…

Review: The Shamrocks at Gluttony 2026 Adelaide Fringe
•
★★★★★ On the giant screen behind the stage sits an Irish pub frozen in time. Beer taps gleam. Whisky bottles line wooden shelves. Half-filled glasses perch on kegs at the corners of the stage. To the far left, what looks like an archer’s quiver hangs beside a fiddle, but instead…

Review: Postmodern Jukebox 2026 Adelaide Cabaret Festival

★★★★★ Before Postmodern Jukebox’s Adelaide Cabaret Festival set, a voice from the crowd yelled out: “Willie!” It was not a random heckle. It was a greeting. Willie Jay Moore Jr had not yet been handed his big solo moment. He was behind the kit, holding down the show with the…
