It is lovingly crafted to prompt reflection on humanity and the strange, wonderful and heartbreaking experience of being awake, alive and aware. So, step through the portal.

Sugar Bits Are: FEMINIST TRASH is a full-blown fever dream of a show, and that is exactly what makes it so delightful. After making huge waves at Arthur ArtBar during Adelaide Fringe in 2025, the sketch comedy trio has triumphantly returned ready to unleash their absurdist social commentary on fresh audiences at Gluttony. In a jam-packed last week of Fringe, this is a show worth carving out time for.
Returning to Adelaide Fringe for the second time, Eyrie Improv has curated a rotating cast of glamorous local and interstate performers – none of whom know which song they will perform to, or even where they are on the line up. On the night I attended, I was dazzled and delighted by cast members Blake Cassette, Dutchess Laven Dear, Ember Rose, Peyton James, Mya Dia Monte and of course, Empress Eyrie herself.
Many of the best Fringe shows are all concept, no plot. Chookas is a clucking brilliant example of this universal truth. Three outstanding performers flock together to deliver a silly, surreal and utterly egg-warming ode to the humble chicken. If you like your eggs fried and chooks cooked, this is a must-see for you.
