I’ve been a fan of Lauren Daigle for a while now, so when I heard she was coming to Perth I was more than happy to attend her concert for her Look Up Child world tour. I sure wasn’t expecting what I got.

Without giving too much away, YUMMY UNLEASHED truly turns cabaret on its head and is the must-see show this season.

Post-Mortem is lovely - a moving exploration of a romance that was meant to be, without shying away from some very real issues.

Jan 26 FRINGE REVIEW: "Quokka Apocalypse" is fun, fantastic and slightly ferocious

Alena Yun & Reuben Black
Fringe

Fun, fantastic and slightly ferocious, Quokka Apocalypse was a creative and not-so-subtle poke at the contemporary life we live in (not) the most isolated city in the world, Perth. And also, there were bubbles.

Sharmaine Tan
Fringe

Not for the easily offended, Cameron McLaren's 6056 is tasteless bogan humour... Just the way we like it. The constant self deprecating jokes centred around the lower echelon of society were truly nothing but relatable.

Sharmaine Tan
Fringe

Self-described as "legitimately just nine guys who like to sing, drink and talk", The Choir of Man is an authentic, enjoyable show, filled with down to earth isms, plenty of banter and vocals that will knock you off your feet.

Fynn Ryan

Despite not being 100% familiar with every artist, Falls is always such a great experience and a fantastic way to listen to some new and exciting music. The people, music, food, atmosphere and the organisation of it all were outstanding.

Cats will definitely split audiences into camps of “I loved it”, “I hated it”, and “I don’t know how to feel about it”.
