Festival Time is Best Time!
Perth’s Festival Season is our best time of year. With FRINGE WORLD followed by the fabulous Perth Festival, there’s so much to see, do, experience and be entertained by happening right across the city and beyond, kicking off at the City of Perth’s Australia Day Long Weekend program and running through into March. No matter what you’re into you can trust Fringe to shake off the borings this Summer! For those new to Fringe, the best place to start your Fringe journey is at FRINGE Central throughout the Perth Cultural Centre. The central box office near the Ferris Wheel and Urban Orchard is right at the centre of the entire Fringe universe. There are artists roaming around every night ready to tell you about their shows and so many venues close by for you to check out something new on each visit. FRINGE WORLD 2018 has returning favourites and new treats in store including a brilliant new hub at the Ice Cream Factory, a great new Palace Society program in some of our favourite venues throughout the King and Queen Streets precinct, a huge circus tent landing right next to Yagan Square and a wildly expanded Pleasure Garden program. On the second weekend of the Fringe we introduce our biggest free program yet!.

Also – make sure not to miss the Showman’s Fair at the Urban Orchard in FRINGE Central. It’s a wild Dutch mini-festival with live music, performances and special surprises including a long table dining experience that you’ll be talking about for years! Look out for Silent Disco in the authentic vintage lion’s cage and a tent where you go to be touched by God! Like most of the Fringe hubs – it’s free to enter every night of the Festival if you want to drop in and soak up the Fringe vibes before seeing a show or going on a Fringe Binge!

Welcome from the Premier It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the 2018 FRINGE WORLD Festival program.
Photo by Robert Firth – Acorn Photography
The FRINGE WORLD Festival has shown exponential growth over the past few years. It has not only developed into a much anticipated event on the city’s annual arts and culture calendar, it is now the third largest Fringe Festival in the World. This year promises to be the biggest and most ambitious festival yet. With over 750 shows in almost 130 venues including national and international acts of the highest calibre, there is something for everyone. The FRINGE WORLD Festival provides an important platform ensuring that our home grown talent is not only profiled locally, but receives national and international attention. It also provides significant employment opportunities for technicians and
administrators. In 2017 the Festival provided over 620 jobs and offered an estimated 550 volunteer opportunities. Through the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries and Lotterywest; the State Labor Government is proud to continue to support the FRINGE WORLD Festival. I would like to congratulate the organisers, volunteers, artists and performers on what promises to be another exciting Festival full of all sorts of treats for absolutely everyone.

A queue will form outside your venue before show time and most shows have unallocated seating so line up early to get your pick of the seats.
PRO TRICK: PARK SMART
It’s a great idea to use public transport to get to FRINGE WORLD events. If you’re driving make sure you leave plenty of time and use the City of Perth Parking (CPP) app to find a spot in the city – it shows which car parks have spots available.

The news and treatments that followed were devastating but were they really? This show is about getting real with the experience and smashing shame and taboo. “A one-of-a-kind show” 1/2 The Australia Times.

Presented by Megan Hunter
Presented by Michael Wheatley
“Don’t feel bad for me. I think I’m, like, so pretty” – Amy Schumer. Mavis goes through life like a Karate Kid, in a leotard and living off of last night’s kebab. From the wicked minds of Megan Hunter, Conor Neylon and Jackson Peele, Mavis (And Other Broken Objects) is a tragically comic cabaret about loving yourself… even when you shouldn’t.
Fringe veteran, genre crossing, quintuple threat Michael Wheatley is showing no signs of slowing down. If there’s no rest for the wicked then Sydney sing and fling maestro Michael Wheatley is like the Devil with chronic insomnia and a grand piano blocking the door to the bedroom. Funky beats, burlesque, live music, dad jokes.

Hear the trashiest pop songs of all time in ways you never asked to hear them. Think Kylie, Madonna and Bieber in a unique mix of stadium spectacular and hostage situation.
Tomás Ford reanimates his most notorious, controversial punk techno cabaret material. Built over a decade of touring in filthy punk pubs, the Big Day Out’s Lilyworld and 3am slots in sweaty fetish clubs, this show features his most extreme and best-loved material in an hour-long, hilarious full-scale panic attack. This will be loud and weird. FOUR5NINE • NORTH SIDE • MAP H, VENUE #4 7-9, 11 FEB @ 8:00 PM • 60 MINS

Triage! A Nursing Cabaret: Discharged!

Courtney Act Under The Covers
Presented by A Cardiac Event
Presented by Lyrical Infusion
Presented by Working Management Pty Ltd
Ever busted out a ballad to the beat of a heart monitor in the ICU? Triage returns, following a sold out tour to rave reviews across Australia and the UK with a fresh show: Discharged! Nurses have been speaking a secret language for 100’s of years & Triage is here to translate! A unique night of comedy, music & nursing secrets...
A night in the Red Room with Madame Lush and her cabaret soiree, will be a night you will remember; dirty blues, sexy jazz, vintage burlesque and a gospel choir like you never imagined. The stage is set, the men are dressed to impress, the ladies are ready to tease and the show begins as Madame L whispers, “turn me, kiss me.”
Courtney Act has been under the covers with many, but not usually in front of a live audience. It’s time to get tucked in, lay back and enjoy the caress of romantic satin sheets as she strips songs down and flips them on their back to show you just how gender & genre fluid a great song can be! It will leave you pillow fighting and pillow biting.

Valerie Savage Doesn’t Understand Love
Vicious Von Vixen’s Vaudeville
Presented by Savagery Ltd
Presented by RMS Productions
Voila Variete Presented by City of Stirling’s Summerset Arts Festival & Fliptease
Valerie Savage is a lot more comfortable affectionately swearing at her friends and lovers than expressing any real emotions. In a #relatable cabaret show by Savage and the Ivy Jelisavac, creator and director of Relationshit, get ready to watch a grown woman finally work through some uncomfortable feelings through the magic of song.
Direct from London, it’s Vicious Von Vixen’s Vaudeville. Step back in time to the roaring 1920’s when the gin flowed a’plenty, gentlemen wore swanky suits with hats and women indulged in their sexuality... but beware; here at the vaudeville, we set the 20’s off with a twist! A little bit naughty, and a little bit fun - variety is the spice of life!

What the Fandango?!
Presented by The Comedy Emporium
Presented by Robert Hofmann
Motherly advice is not always welcomed, but this cabaret show celebrates the tears, the triumphs and the love of our mothers through song and true stories. Four very out of the box characters recount real stories about coping with puberty, love and adulting. You’ll laugh and you’ll cry, as you’re reminded of all the best intentions of our mothers.
Cabaret star Robert Hofmann splits into four powerful personas in his new multi-gendered romp through South America and beyond. Featuring musician Cathie Travers, this blend of comedy, classical and contemporary songs addresses your sex, their sex and no sex. “Hilarious, poignant cabaret” The West, 2017, for Desperately Young at Heart.

Hands some Feet
Heartstring Tangle
Ladies of the Big Top
Presented by Hands some Feet
Presented by Kaleido Company
Presented by Kaleido Company
In the depths of the Finnish forest something stirs. Dry hands. Sweaty feet. Everything is this moment; there isn’t a thing more fragile. From the delicate to the downright ludicrous, the duo combine their specialised circus techniques of juggling and tight wire along with theatre, acrobatic manipulations, singing song and skipping rope.
A tale of two entangled in a gripping and poetic story of the heart. When seemingly normal lives collide and entwine, the web that ensues causes a flurry both in the air and on the ground in a struggle for individuality. This stunning, evocative expression of the human condition will touch your nerves and leave you with a frisson of enlightenment.
Kaleido Company presents Perth’s finest selection of babes, broads, and chicks with tricks. We’re ready to flex our lady muscles and show you how the gals of circus do it. Be prepared for a night of gravity-defying aerial acts, amusing antics, and unhinged interludes in this cabaret-style circus show. Bring everyone you’ve ever met.

Rejection is a part of natural selection. After being single for 30 years Daniel Delby has lived by this mantra...painfully. 30 Years Single is a show about the funny side of rejection, what love is in 2017, social media, Tinder but most of all about how life has been as a 30 Year Old Eternal Bachelor. Definitely not a PC look at love.

Anna Piper Scott is a cuck. At least, that’s what people tell her on the internet when she talks politics. Which is weird, cause she’s usually pointing out that she *doesn’t* like seeing people get screwed over. Come join one of the festival’s favourite comedians as she tries to keep afloat in a world of Nazis, snowflakes and triggers with attitude.

Craptastic Trivia
Crazy Sexy Improv
Presented by The Gelo Company
Presented by Fremantle Comedy Factory
The questions are made up and so are the answers. Not even Google can save you now. The old pub quiz has been turned on its head. No more pretending to remember answers you don’t even know or arguments over right or wrong answers. Forget capital cities, pop culture facts and great sporting moments there’s no right or wrong – there’s only Craptastic
Have you ever wondered what inspired your favourite pop hits? Of course you have! You don’t get a classic like ‘I Kissed A Girl’ without some kind of awesome backstory. Crazy Sexy Improv is a totally made-up-on-the-spot journey through musical inspiration and the bizarre lives of pop stars.

It’s My Funeral and I’ll Throw Glitter if I Want To
Jacinta Gregory Jacintegrating
Presented by Isobel Marmion
Presented by Baby Boy Bolognese
Jack Savage - Silly Billy Presented by Baby Boy Bolognese
After a (tiny) mental breakdown, Isobel has proactively decided to face her fears and throw her own funeral, rather than waiting for the zombie apocalypse or her untimely death from one of many possible diseases to occur. A comedy about mental illness and the fear of dying alone, but in an uplifting way!
Jacinta Gregory is a musical comedienne and manic depressive. Juggling life, love and being a woman in this modern world/big city/ Newtown? I don’t know how she does it. Find out in a night of live music, painful laughter, and hurtful truths. She’s crumbling, she hates puns - she’s Jacintegrating.

Lauren Bok: Between a Bok and a Hard Place
Presented by Laura Davis
Presented by Laura Davis
Presented by Lauren Bok
After an ABC TV special in 2017 & a run of sold-out Melbourne and UK shows, Cake in the Rain is the hotly anticipated new hour from critically acclaimed, multi awardwinning comedian Laura Davis. With a refreshing disregard for convention, Davis’s brand of bold, joyously cathartic comedy will leave you “amazed at such blistering talent” Time Out.
A show about life. Performed by a ghost. Winner of the prestigious Golden Gibbo Award at MICF and Best Comedy at Melbourne Fringe, Ghost Machine is a truly unique experience for the comedy savvy. Described by critics as “phenomenal”, “bold and extraordinary” and “totally hilarious”, this is an internationally acclaimed show not to be missed.
After crushing Edinburgh and Melbourne Fringe, award-winning comedian Lauren Bok (SBS Comedy) returns with her new mind-bendingly hilarious meta show about how to make a show. “Clever...wacky...pure silliness...Has got to be one of the shows that embraces the spirit of the Fringe” Squirrel Comedy, 2017 Funny Tonne Rip It Up.

Macbeth... Without the Shakespeare Bollocks
Manfred Yon Loves You (The Audience)
Presented by Bruce Fummey
Presented by Infinite Jest Comedy
Scottish stand-up comedy, not English literature. Bruce’s comic observations probe deep into medieval Scotland to discover the last great Celtic king so shamefully misrepresented by Shakespeare. You get the real Macbeth… and nob jokes. “His research is deep, his timing is split second. His ad lib ability is amazing” Scottish Daily Record.
I, Manfred Yon, am really glad you’re coming to my show. I bet you’ll have a great time. We can hang out, pal around, just chat about anything you like. What do you want to hear jokes about? Picasso? I’ve got maybe two Picasso jokes, sure. You, personally, will love it. Why? Because you decide the show! And Manfred Yon Loves You (The Audience).

Mediocre as F*ck
Mick Neven: Killing It
Presented by Gavin Lind
Presented by Mick Neven
Now that he is committed to mediocrity, Gavin broadens his quest to explore life’s inescapable clichés. He looks into the absurdity of privilege with tales of the good, the bad and (especially) the ugly in his unique dark philosophical way. “Mediocrity has never been this funny” The Independent, UK.
Top Aussie Headline Act, Mick Neven returns to FRINGE WORLD with a brand new show. Kill your fears, kill your dumb ideas, kill the little voice in your head that says ‘don’t say that’. Mick has, and now he’s Killing It. Life, death, equality, religion - nothing off limits. “It’s a Rollercoaster Wizard of a ride from Oz” International Times, 2017.

Tessa Waters - Volcano
Thank You Driver
The Abersham Flat
Presented by Fringe Wives Club
Presented by Happy To Be An Idiot
Presented by Aidan Jones
Winner of Best Comedy Weekly Award AdlFringe 2015 and 2017. Multi Award winning comedian Tessa Waters has been thinking a lot about the apocalypse. Due to a lack of knowledge in woodwork or an ability to run she is sure to be the first person you eat... she hopes to convince you otherwise. As seen on ABC Comedy Next Gen and SBS Eurovision Top 40.
What has six wheels, goes ‘toot’ and carries a hell-of-a lot of crazy? That’s right. Buses are more than just a means of transport... Real-life bus driver, Nick Hasemann, lifts the lid on the utterly odd and hilarious journeys of a public transport bus. With characters, clowning and a bit of the insane, it’s a comedy show like no other!
Hey, I’m Aidan. In 2015 a conman named Andy moved into my flat in London and started systematically defrauding the other flatmates out of hundreds of pounds. I wrote a blog about it every week and released it in secret, and my laptop was confiscated by police in the ensuing fraud investigation. Andy never paid me back - this is the story.

Shall we get comfy?
Presented by good moves
Presented by April Vardy
Catch them, spot them, slot in with them and look again. Can a sculpture and the human body find balance between physicality and inner tranquillity? Local movers interact with the cultural centre in an improvisation based performing art. See if you can find them, and yourself, in the here and now.
This is a performance questioning what it means to be comfortorable. Are we most comfortable being in the comfort of our own homes? Do we find comfortability within others? How long does it take to get physically comfortable? Come watch us attempt to answer these questions.

Tableau/Tablao
The Faerie Queen
The Honeymoon Suite
Presented by Sofia Pratt
Presented by Zahara Dance Company
Presented by Bernadette Lewis
Tableau/Tablao is Sofia Pratt’s second show for FRINGE WORLD, following on from 2017’s Loco, which won the WA Dance and Physical Theatre award. Tableau/ Tablao is a kaleidoscopic collage of contemporary flamenco dance and ancient rhythm, chasing the oneness of art and life, inside and out, reality and unreality. Sound. Sweat. Passion. Poetry.
Faerie Queen Belladonna, guardian of her niece Violet, perceives her as a threat Instead of merely sending her away, imprisons Violet. In Belladonna’s lust for power, she corrupts the faerie magic, and twists it into something dark and cruel. Come on a sensory journey into the faerie realm with ZDC.
A new live dance, light, and photography installation. A neon, time travelling dreamscape delving in to the strange lands of vintage women’s wrestling, age-old pageant queens and tacky, retro TV intros. Welcome to The Honeymoon Suite. Enjoy your stay. Don’t feed the birds. Let’s get ready to rumble.

Jessie Gordon is Ruining Your Night
Jessie Gordon Live Electric Loops
Presented by Jessie Gordon
Presented by Jessie Gordon
Jessie is an 8 time FRINGE WORLD award winner, veteran jazz singer, blues dancer and expert cheese eater. She is good at what she does. Especially the cheese eating. But in every show there’s a moment where everything can go horribly wrong. Jessie shares the moments of ruination, punctuated by songs performed in her inimitable smokey, sultry style.
Jessie is one of Perth’s best known jazz & blues singers. Touring through Europe with her looping station inspired her to combine her swinging vocals with an electronic groove, and this show blends her love of live improvised jazz with her passion for words and meaning. Each show will be ad-libbed, inspired by audience ideas, and wildly unplanned.

So Fresh: The Fairly Average Dance Party

Presented by Jessie Gordon
Join the Fairly Average Dance Band for a night of moderate abandon as they play their way through a selection of your very favourite tolerable hits from the 90s and early 2000s. With average intensity, FADB will present a mediocre evening of tunes, bad dance moves and other miscellany. Come down for a decidedly mainstream and unexceptional affair!

Street Magic // Pierre Ulric
Presented by Hendrick-Jan de Stuntman meets Merel Kamp
Stunt Magic Street Show Presented by Danger David Reubens
An over the top romantic comedy in the style of a silent movie. A man and a woman are suspended from and restrained by steel springs from the first time they meet until the inevitable ‘happy ever after’ ending. A spectacular tragicomic visual love story with all the clichés. Created by Jos van Wees en Merel Kamp, directed by Vincent de Rooij.
Pure, honest, raw and unforgiving: Welcome to the world of LIVE street magic. The International Man of Mystery hits the streets with busking shows and guerrilla art sessions, pushing his limits and yours. Psychological magic, avant-garde sleight of hand, and illusion. Catch him if you can!

Presented by Patrick Hercamp
Presented by The Blue Room Theatre Summer Nights & Beyond the Yard
Winner: Best Theatre, Adelaide Fringe 2017. In 2016, playwright Emily Steel had a termination after her baby was diagnosed with Down Syndrome. This is her story. Come sit by the pool, put your feet in the water, and listen. “We leave, changed. This is what theatre is about.” GlamAdelaide, 2017.
Patrick Hercamp (Sound & Fury) follows up last year’s FRINGE WORLD Best Theatre nominated show ‘Half Hour Hamlet’ and shall play many parts to uniquely present William Shakespeare’s very own Macbeth. ‘30 Minute Macbeth’ smashes right through all the traditional barriers and is presented in a hilarious, fun and enjoyable way.
This is a story about you, me and the loneliest whale in the world. Five people with five stories that unravel the contemporary nature of isolation. Alone in an apartment, in a bustling bar, in the dial tone of a message bank and across the deep blue - waiting for a reply.

This solo show provides an ethereal experience of someone who has the weight of the world on their shoulders, and how - if at all - to find a little bit of happy.

Blackwater Lake
Presented by One Eye Open
Presented by Modicum Theatre Perth
PREM
Just too late, just too early, just out of time, just out of reach. That’s all there is for Lucian and Kiara. They are always with each other and yet never in the same room. Clinging to memories, they fight to make more in a world lost in the superficial and burdened by things to do, places to be and people to see. Will they share a real moment?
One summer break, seven friends take a camping trip to rustic forest getaway Blackwater Lake - but their fun-filled weekend quickly turns to a deadly nightmare straight out of a slasher flick. One by one, the group is picked off by a masked killer stalking them in the night as the camp’s bloodstained history starts to make a grizzly comeback.

Presented by The Blue Room Theatre Summer Nights, Duck & Bear, and Sekrit Projekt
Presented by Roby Favretto & Caitlin Spears
At the heart of a war, a woman waits for a violent stranger to marry her. Her groom is Henry V. Shakespeare’s greatest hero and his bloodiest villain. The Bride is Katherine. A foreigner with no mighty language and no weapons. A violent puppet ballet for every woman who’s felt trapped, and every man who’s tried to be a hero.
Strictly for Grown Ups! A depressed cactus mascot and an aspiring mime re-enact their romance in the style of a children’s show. Watch in wonder and alarm as Trevor and Amanda fight a ticking clock and the limits of a G rated world in this dramedy bursting with talent show grudges, mystery gifts and virginal puppets... 1/2 The Age, 2017.

Completely Improvised Shakespeare
Condensed Literature: The Iliad
Confessions of a Magician
Presented by Soothplayers
Presented by Black Martini Theatre
Presented by Pierre Ulric / Global Mysteries
Soothplayers improvise a hilarious Shakespearean play from nothing but a suggested title from the audience. No plans. No scripts. They guarantee you will laugh or your money back. The show is fast-paced and action-packed, promising laughs and gasps for Bard lovers and haters alike. “A sure bet” The Herald Sun “Astounding” The Age.
The Iliad is a really big book. It’s a long book. And it’s a poem! Homer wasn’t very considerate of the modern audience when writing this epic. Wouldn’t a shortened version, one filled with anachronisms, late night hosts and card battles be more interesting? There is only one way to find out.

Cool Like Hot Tuna
Cow Helena 105
Crunchy Silk
Presented by The Malletier
Presented by Sterre van den Heuvel
Presented by Katnip Productions
Cool Like Hot Tuna is a gaudy show of comedy and sketches, channelling the spirit of Luigi from WA Salvage. Tucked away in your past was a person who was gnarly and was unafraid to sport DaDa shirts, until those things were hidden in an old drawer. Well, it’s is time to reawaken - to say we are not so fancy, but embrace affordability.
Of all cows in The Netherlands, Cow Helena 105 performed the most. She lived from May the 25th, 2002 until February the 1st, 2016.This show is a tribute to this fantastic cow. It’s a humoristic happening with a dignified end. Cow Helena 105 and Jacob Rens performed together throughout the Netherlands. Helena did it all.
Something’s wrong with Astrid. That’s what Olivia says. Marlo says Astrid’s fine, it’s Olivia who’s bats**t. Round and round it goes and when it stops, someone dies. “A chill of goosebumps, a shock in my spine. I am cold and thrilled. Just when you thought a story couldn’t surprise you anymore, something like this comes along” Theatreview, NZ.

Letters To John
Presented by Summer Nights & Lazy Yarns
Presented by Casey Elder
In perfect darkness, storytelling and live soundtrack transport audiences to times and places of great intervention. That twist in your gut, the relief from a hug. Recognisable feelings in unfamiliar territory. Imaginations run wild through the unknown, as we trip and stumble over things that feel oh so familiar.
Ever fallen in like with a possible Men’s Rights Activist? Come on a ‘will they, won’t they’ journey that makes no sense. You’ll want to learn ukulele, Facebook message the object of your adolescent love(/hate), and ponder what it’d take to be friends again with someone you find mortally offensive.

We’re young, dumb and horny. We’re impressionable and confused. We have a distorted sense of self, reality and sexuality. In short: we’re f***ked up. And it stays with us for life. Watch it unravel, 10 minutes at a time.”Varied, insightful and clever” Stage Whispers, 2017 “Perfect bite-sized morsels of entertainment” Avenoir Magazine, 2017.
JOAN After numerous UK tours the critically acclaimed, multi-award winning JOAN makes its Australian debut. An earthy story of courage and conviction, this is Joan of Arc. History’s greatest gender-warrior takes to the stage, dragging up as the men she defies, in this fearless solo show with songs. “Powerful, dynamic and irreverent” The Scotsman.

Lysistrata or: War! Whoa! What Is It Good For?!
Anoush tries to decide what to wear to a fancy dress party. By trying on different clothes she explores her identity. She has always felt like an outsider. Anoush realises that she has spent her entire life searching for her identity, uncomfortable with the social culture that she has been raised in but distanced from a heritage that she never knew.
Tom Hanks had a volleyball named Wilson. Jake Simonds has a basketball named Spalding--who may or may not embody the spirit of Spalding Gray, neurotic pioneer of the autobiographical monologue. Inspired by Cast Away (2000) and other survival-in-isolation films, ...like nobody’s watching asks why we still feel lonely in an ever-more-connected world.
Will Lysistrata’s sex strike make love and not war? Join us on a journey through time to expose the never-ending nonsense behind our preoccupation with fighting each other. Blending parody, political satire, sketch comedy and the anti-war anthems of the 60s and 70s, Aristophanes’ antiwar battle of the sexes proves as relevant as ever.

Not All A Dream
Onset
Passing
Presented by Brushstroke Productions
Presented by Haylee Whisson
Presented by Improve Silence
111
In the 200th anniversary year of ‘Frankenstein’, this new play dives into the story behind the story; how an 18 year old woman, Mary Shelley, created one of the most recognisable and horrifying figures in western culture. Join us early for a lakeside picnic, as we recreate the haunting majesty of Lake Geneva in this site-specific production.
Small moments. Big impacts. This high-energy, five-person show combines monologues and physical theatre to explore how small moments can lead to the ‘onset’ of perceptions and beliefs that colour our lives. Powerful, thoughtprovoking theatre that leaves the audience pondering the influence of their own seemingly ‘small’ moments.
Passing is something that Sara is great at. White people think she’s white, Arabs think she’s Arab. Easy! Sort of. She avoids a lot of racism, but she hears what everyone really thinks. People get that you can be culturally but not religiously Jewish, Sara’s trying to do the same with Islam. Things get more complicated when Sara gets a girlfriend.

Power Ballad
Presented by David McNamara & the hearsay theatre group
Presented by The Blue Room Theatre Summer Nights & Zanetti Productions/Julia Croft
In a fantastical land of fairies, pirates, and corn-driven theocracy, only the strongest adventurers can save the world from certain doom! Join the party in Platformia, where pen-and-paper roleplaying games meet interactive theatre.
Power Ballad is an angry, feminist, live art investigation of language and its sometimes hidden ideologies. Part performance lecture, part karaoke party; Power Ballad deconstructs gendered linguistic histories and rips apart contemporary language to find a new articulation of pleasure, anger and femaleness. The List.

Presented by Nick morlet
Presented by City of Stirling’s Summerset Arts Festival & WA Association for Mental Heath
Is pity a bad thing? It most certainly is not. Whether it’s pity for yourself or for other people, it needs to be celebrated. The next question is, how do you celebrate it? And the obvious answer is, with The Double Act, glitter, sequins, food and party hats. We invite you to come and learn what pity is all about at our pity party.
The Raglan Fetish Show is a one-man show featuring lipsync, transgression, spoken word poetry, audience participation, cursed images; that is, all at once. Allfiltered through the hectic patter of one Patrick Downlow, Esq. You want content? You’ll get your content. He has the zeitgeist pressed to one temple and a handgun to the other.

Ren Lunicke - “Ze”: queer as f*ck!
Ren Lunicke Blood Relative
Séance | An Immersive Experience
Presented by Zir Productions
Presented by Zir Productions
Presented by Realscape Productions in association with Darkfield
An autobiographical comedy about sex, gender, and the expanding parade of labels and identities Michelle/Ryan claims on zir way to pride. ‘Ze’ (a gender neutral pronoun) details zir multiple ‘coming outs’ from one LGBTQI, etc. box to the next, in a celebration that exposes the tension between being authentic and belonging.1/2 OUTInPerth.
‘Family will always be there for you,’ unless they disapprove of you, are dying, or can’t be born. Blood Relative highlights Ren (of ‘Ze’: queer as f*ck!), Ren’s disapproving mum and Ren’s dying grandmother; all struggling with the mythology of ‘happy family,’ the limitations of biological kinship, and the power to redefine family for themselves.
Séance is an intense sonic performance that lasts for 15 terrifying minutes inside a completely dark shipping container. It asks the audience to believe, not only what seems to be happening in the container but also in what might be conjured up. “Séance felt perfectly contained and completely absorbing, spine-tingling” The Stage

Presented by Star-Crossed Poets
‘Because Men are the only ones with the right to talk about Women’s bodies.’ Ana Neves directs an all-male cast in the social satire that is, Soup. This learning experience explores taboo, and instigates spirited conversation that includes and spans over people from all walks of life. Dare to join us in theatrical banter about ‘the fairer sex’.
Shakespeare wrote that, right? Like, over a hundred years ago? Better get with the times. StarCrossed Poets will be delivering words of love for today’s romantics in spades of contemporary style. Grab a date and join us for this nod to old mate Shakespeare. #scpoets.

Texta covered uniforms and the countdown to the last high school bell of your life. This hilariously dark comedy takes actors over the age of 60 and returns them to the blissful celebration of finishing high school. Booze drenched emotion, Snapchat filtered secrets and a rare window of hopeful clarity.

Sudden Skies
SUPER-FANNY-TASTIC
Presented by Jon Madd and Paul James
Presented by The Blue Room Theatre Summer Nights & Blank Space Productions
Presented by MILK BOX Theatre Company
A buddy cop magic show, a mismatch made in prison, & 55 minutes that none of us will ever get back again. Or will we? The Enigmatic Eccentric Jon Madd reckons it’s impossible, but it could just be the voices in his head talking. Luckily we have the ever professional Paul James to keep matters in order, but does luck have anything to do with magic?
A crisis, a closed gate, a looming storm… Sudden Skies is an electric and physical hour of theatre. Two anti-heroes have the power of nations as they undertake a thunderous battle of wills. Performed by Ann-Marie Biagioni and Haydon Wilson this is a dark spectacle that merges light, sound and motion in a world of threat.

A good person. A search party. A dock. ADHD. A white room. And a silvery metallic thermos with a shitty plastic handle. These seemingly unrelated short stories by Youtuber Mikasacus have been adapted for the stage and explore themes of identity, morality, relationships and existence through an engaging style of absurdist storytelling.

When Cockburn College’s oval is desecrated, the School Captain, Diane, and her BFF, Lucy, go all ‘Murder, She Wrote’ on the situation to uncover the culprit. A celebration of friendship and memes, ‘TCI’ explores our responsibility in this weird, unpredictable world. “Very proud of you” Our Mums.
Near death, Henry Arkwell discovers a gold nugget. That’s when things turn to sh*t. Matt Crossland leads us on a journey through the darker passages of the human psyche in a tale of violence, decay and paranoia. A one-hander that’ll punch you in the face, underlined by sound and projected visuals from multi-award winning musicians, Stoney Joe.

A Victorian bride waits for her unknown groom on her wedding night. As she waits she tells stories of beauties and beasts using gothic shadow puppets, a bed, and a 1860s wedding dress. This chilling one-woman show is by the maker of the popular ‘Singing Bones’ podcast, Clare Testoni. It is an erotic horror fairy tale, for the modern feminist.

Wil Greenway: the way the city ate the stars
yourseven by James Berlyn
The cult hit of Edinburgh Fringe hits Australia! It’s England. 1989. A frenzy of illegal raves and warehouse parties. Jumpin up and down in a field and throwing two fingers at Thatcher. Remember it? We don’t. We weren’t even born. But Ian was. And Ian’s gonna take us back. “Be Ian, be you, but really just be in this audience” AYoungerTheatre.

Peak Performance
Presented by Annette Nykiel
Presented by Paper Mountain
WORLD
PREM
During a 3 week residency, Annette Nykiel slowly transforms Spectrum Project Space into a making place. An exhibition emerges, created from piecing together gleaned fibre, and fragments of found objects and handmade textiles. The resulting installations evoke the non-urban spaces where the materials are gathered or made during sustained fieldwork.
Peak Performance is a one-nightonly showcase of unclassifiable and transformative performance art at Paper Mountain, an exhibition space for experimental contemporary art. Featuring a cast of local female artists, Peak Performance carves a place for intimacy amidst spectacle, reframing expectations between FRINGE WORLD performers and audiences.
