Review – Best of the Edinburgh Fest
The Best of the Edinburgh Fest is the tamer younger brother of the Late Show, so if you have parents with a curfew or nostalgic Brits in tow, there’s plenty for all to enjoy.
Review – Love & Other Acts of Theft
Love & Other Acts of Theft is one hour of four short plays, linked solely by well-placed Gilmore Girls references. Together they provide F I N T’s talented ensemble the opportunity to show the Adelaide Fringe audiences what they’ve got – and that’s skills, Adelaide. Acting skills!
Review – The Bunker Trilogy: Agamemnon
This is a totally immersive experience. The audience shuffles in to the bunker in the almost dark, with dirt at their feet and lanterns swinging above their heads. There is barbed wire and sandbags, and we sit on wooden benches lining the canvas walls while the action plays out inches in front of us.
Review – Ada & Elsie: Wacko-the-Diddle-oh!
The wide eyed innocence of Sherlock and Yelland in their delivery of sometimes quite vulgar innuendo is both charming and hilarious.
Review – Neil Sinclair: Charmingly Useless
His self-effacing set is a wonderfully enjoyable hour that, counter-intuitively, seems to play even better in a slightly empty room.

Review – Swamp Juice
Swamp Juice is the story of a nasty little man with an evil cackle who enjoys tormenting the snails, snakes and birdies of the swamp he boats on. Until today, that is, when his world suddenly gets turned inside out.
Review – (finger)prints
Without giving anything away, the basic premise centres upon Esther being killed by a drunk driver. Oli and Sam desperately try to convince Max that he did it through such brutal levels of selfish machination that they could only be summoned by minds in utter desperation.
Review – Carousel & Clothesline
Imagine a bearded and tattooed muscle man supporting his pint-sized partner by her pelvis in a complex hold, which then segues seamlessly and sensuously between flips, holds and drops to the gasping appreciation of the crowd. Hot, right? Just wait until you see it.
Review – Rom Com Con
Finding themselves despairingly single, British comedians Lizzy Mace and Juliette Burton sought to investigate this very premise by undertaking the ultimate social experiment, and road testing some of the most common rom-com tropes in real life.
Review – The Beautiful & the Damned
Sarina del Fuego, Raven Noir, Doll.I.Am, Leopard Lass and Silk Desire want to tease you. They want to titillate and please you. And they do.
