Zygosity, Adelaide Fringe Festival 2015

No Comments 08 March 2015

In a cellar underneath Hindley Street, two people sit under white sheets and wait. We don’t know anything about them; they could be complete strangers, they could be lovers. They could be mannequins. In dim, menacing red light, the sheets are pulled back and Zygosity begins—in parts terrifying, in others funny, this unassuming play from […]

Gillian Cosgriff – Whelmed, Adelaide Fringe Festival 2015

No Comments 06 March 2015

Whelmed explores how Gillian Cosgriff “keeps it going” in her anxious modern life through a mix of songs and anecdotes about her offbeat interests and childhood hijinks. This show is observational, without the humour. The comedy/cabaret performance doesn’t hit either note, but is relatable in its populist and uninspired subject matter. At the beginning Cosgriff […]

Him, Adelaide Fringe Festival 2015

No Comments 26 February 2015

In a tiny tent in the middle of Adelaide, a man steps down from behind a cloud hanging from the ceiling and starts to strip for you.
