FRINGE PREVIEW: Rose [LIVE] brings the late-night talk show to Fringe

Fringe Review: "Cassandra Barbitoll" captivates with charm, wit, and physical comedy
Joske’s comedic timing was impeccable, and the performance had emotion and vulnerability that kept me hooked.
INTERVIEW: Comedian Patrick Marlborough invites you to a Woodside chat, "On Fringe"
With Fringe stating that performers are not to disparage any of it’s sponsors, Patrick has begun a modern day David vs. Goliath against the mining giant Woodside.
FRINGE REVIEW: One Day Closer is a tender, touching exploration of relationships and mental health
Written and directed by Perth-born rising star Tim Hotchkin, One Day Closer was an incredibly intimate and emotional show.
FRINGE REVIEW: Matt Hale goes 'Bonkers'
Set in the gorgeous, heritage-listed Perth Girl’s School, Matt’s Fringe World Festival 2021 show is returning for the 6th year in a row. The years of experience were certainly a catalyst for a fun-filled show - turning your preconceived notions of hypnosis on their head and leaving the participants feeling a little BONKERS.
FRINGE REVIEW: Behold, the drink-spittingly good Reuben Kaye
A gifted artist is one thing – but one that uses their voice for good is another.
Bringing his new self-titled show to Fringe World Festival 2021, global cabaret sensation Reuben Kaye has given us A-class comedy, talent and vivid storytelling all in one fell swoop.
FRINGE REVIEW: Halal, is it meat you’re looking for?
With a hilariously balanced amount of honesty and self-deprecation around his multicultural life, his compelling storytelling had the audience in fits of laughter for almost the entire hour.
FRINGE REVIEW: Disenchanted! questions values Once Upon A Time
Disenchanted! is a hilariously fiery, feminist denunciation of the classic Disney princess stories that we all grew up watching.
FRINGE REVIEW: "Selfless Orchestra: Great Barrier" is a poignant and immersive ode to the Great Barrier Reef
It is a rare thing that a show with no words tells a story as poignant and immersive as this.

FRINGE FEST: TEAM OF THE DECADE PLAYS FAIR

FRINGE REVIEW: "Slutdrop" and "30 Day Free Trial" are the perfect fringe double-team
There is very much a common theme between the shows Slutdrop and 30 Day Free Trial. These are intelligent shows from local theatre makers which interrogate our relationship towards the consumption of sex - whether that is out at strip clubs or in the soft glow of internet pornography.
FRINGE REVIEW: Diary of a Racially Confused Girl
After a successful 2019 Fringe Season, Nicholette C is back with her one-of-a-kind Fringe event, Diary of a Racially Confused Girl. With her charismatic and charming spiels about her teenage years or the nostalgic reminiscence for hometown food, the show was clearly written with the racially disoriented in mind.
FRINGE REVIEW: Cultural Renegades bring 90’s era cypher circles to Perth

FRINGE REVIEW: CHRIS MARTIN CLAW MACHINE GRABS LAUGHS
I’m no comedian (unless I’m six beers in) but Chris Martin: Claw Machine is a harmlessly delightful stand-up show NOT by the Coldplay front-man.
FRINGE REVIEW: Tony Galati the Musical is spud-tacular
Written by Dan Debuf, the original musical is a beautiful ode to the Western Australian urban legend himself.
FRINGE REVIEW: Lisa Woodbrook’s “It’s Not Me, It’s Definitely You” is exceptional in every way
I still can’t decide whether I preferred her musical or comedic performance – both were done with absolute confidence, refined talent and the perfect level of humour, with this stellar combination never faltering for even a second.
FRINGE REVIEW: Bernie Dieter’s "Little Death Club" is dangerous, devilish debauchery
There’s a reason why Bernie Dieter is known as “the mistress of mayhem” and “queen of Fringe”. Little Death Club is what I’d describe as the love child of a mad genius and wicked seductress – fierce, ravenous and excited to push the boundaries of traditional cabaret.
