Fringe 2020 Week One Wrap-Up

We’re only one week in to the 2020 Adelaide Fringe, and already there have been so many memorable moments with amazing shows kicking off right from opening night. Gluttony and The Garden of Unearthly Delights have put on delicious and colourful displays, and the crowds have been amazing every night this week.

Below are the shows we have attended so far, and all I would recommend for you to go and see. A vast range of genres, with something for the whole family to enjoy…

Rebel
You don’t need to be a Bowie fan to absolutely love this live glam rock spectacular, combining music, circus and costume selection to die for. A live circus rock tribute to the original rebel, David Bowie, this high energy show incorporates acrobatics and aerials, with spectacular sideshow antics.

Hotel Paradiso
A fabulous laugh-out-loud circus comedy for the whole family, filled with death-defying feats, impossible stunts and a really lovely story line. The cast of 6 from LIT Circus beautifully present their fast-paced, visually spectacular story, with great crowd interaction. Highly recommend!

Akmal
With his hilarious views on every day events and life, you’ll laugh so hard throughout Akmal’s show, he is always worth seeing again and again. No two shows are ever the same, and with some brilliant handling of hecklers in the audience, you will always hear new stories, new jokes and always loads of belly laughs.

Comedy Hypnotist Matt Hale
Oh my goodness what a FUN show! The whole audience was in fits of laughter with the tasks he had those hypnotised up on the stage doing. From riding tiny horses to performing Bon Jovi songs with incorrect lyrics, this hour was non stop belly laughter. A real feel good show that left us wanting more.
