Review – The Girl Who Won’t Grow Up
Girl Who Won’t Grow Up is surprisingly quirky and refreshingly unique; a top-notch show from an emerging local talent.
Review – Dungeon Crawl
Put on your robe and wizard hat, because the brothers from Shaolin Punk have come to the Fringe to weave some improvisational comedy magic.
Review – A Grizzly Took My Bébé
You’d kinda hope that if you flew four comedians to Australia all the way from the Arctic, you’d give them a stage with some aircon so they don’t melt in the 40 degree heat.
Review – Abigoliah Schamaun: Girl Going to Hell
This is punk rock comedy: shocking, minimalist, energetic, honest, and a mess of fucking fun.
Review – Between the Lines
Geordie Little’s debut Fringe show ‘Between the Lines’ is a forum for you to sit, listen and watch in awe as this one guy gets layers of sound out of one instrument.

Review – Iridium
In the modern digital age, Jazz kinda gets a bad rap sometimes.

Don’t be that guy: see some quality local jazz with Iridium.
Review – Morgan & West: Clockwork Miracles
This is not your run-of-the-mill magic show. This one has a coherent and engaging storyline tying all the tricks together.
Review – Altar Ego
Altar Ego is a series of vignettes about marriage and relationships, told by both genders. Some were incredibly funny, others almost deadly serious.
Review – Agnes of God
Agnes of God quickly establishes its premise: a young nun is found in her quarters, bleeding and alone, having apparently murdered her new-born baby.
Review – Animal Farm
I’ll admit that I was entirely dubious about a one-man show of a story entirely about animals- the logistics just seemed too complicated to be a success. But Guy Masterson’s solo take on Orwell’s classic Animal Farm quelled those doubts within minutes.
Review – Peter Combe: Quirky Berserky The Turkey from Turkey
Kid’s songs are simple, but that doesn’t necessarily make them easy to write or perform, and Combe’s consummate delivery demonstrated why he has endured for so long.
Review – Songs From Hollywood’s Golden Era
Evidently the ‘Golden Era of Hollywood’ spans about fifty years but I’m not complaining about that.
