FRINGE WORLD, Perth, Westralia

PREMIER OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA WELCOME TO THE PROGRAM FOR FRINGE WORLD FESTIVAL 2016! There’s been buzz around Perth’s FRINGE WORLD since the inaugural event in 2011 and its growth since then has been remarkable. FRINGE WORLD is now recognised as the third largest fringe festival in the world, an incredible achievement and a testament to the quality of entertainment on offer and the support and appetite for arts and culture from the Western Australian community. The State Government is a proud supporter of FRINGE WORLD, which is recognised as the largest

annual performance platform in WA. Lotterywest, the Department of Culture and the Arts and the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority have been key to the ongoing growth and success of FRINGE WORLD, which has been a leader in activating new and revitalised city precincts since it started. This year FRINGE WORLD is once again breaking new ground by contributing to the opening of Elizabeth Quay. With both the Perth International Arts Festival and the Fringe occupying Elizabeth Quay during its first public season, the people of Perth and visitors

to our state will have a chance to enjoy this new precinct as part of WA’s summer festival season. The Fringe program continues to provide a huge offering of shows at venues outside the city as well, with programs happening as far south as Mandurah, as far east as Wooroloo and even reaching to Geraldton. The Outer Fringe program will once again entertain audiences in regional and remote communities with a Kids Spectacular visiting Mullewa and Northam, plus a Comedy Gala that will tour to Kalgoorlie, Esperance and Ravensthorpe.

There is truly something for everyone at FRINGE WORLD and with Fringe programs occurring in new precincts, new suburbs and new regional locations every year there is more opportunity than ever to experience all that Fringe has to offer. I hope you all enjoy the entertainment at this year’s Fringe. Your sincerely

Dexy’s Pete Saunders and compere extraordinaire host a fun cabaret packed show with original songs and some cheeky covers and of course some burlesque.

#AdventuresInRetail

2 Joke Girls

Presented by Mahbukkit Creative

Presented by Sian Choyce and Rachel Mills

Welcome to the wonderful world of retail - love it or hate it, it’s something we deal with every day. Books are magic. Bookselling? #AdventuresInRetail is the story of one man’s descent into retail hell, weird or insane customers and those tiny moments of human kindness that make life not quite worthwhile, but a little less face-stabby.

2 Joke Girls is the first collaboration between local comedians Rachel Mills and Sian Choyce. Both have been turning comedy heads on their own, now they’re going to do it together. Their styles may be completely different, but the resulting laughs are just the same. It’s like 2 Broke Girls, but funny.

Dirty HOO-HAA!

Doctor in the House

Douglas Walker: Möglich

Presented by Lazy Susan’s & Cut Snake Comedy

Presented by Dr Ahmed

Presented by Flash in the Can

It’s everyone’s favourite improvised comedy troupe, The Big HOO-HAA! Only filthier. Much, much filthier. In the style of Whose Line Is It Anyway? Dirty HOO-HAA! sees two teams of fearless comedians take to the stage to do battle in a competition of wit, humour and bad mime skills. It’s a pants down race to the dirty punch line. Tickets: $20

What is your doctor really thinking? Why is he always running late? Spend an intimate evening of insightful and intelligent comedy with this Perth GP as he shares some ups and downs of being a modern day doctor and his adventures of moving to Australia. With lots of audience participation and Q&A time, he will have you in stitches.

The funny one from Racing Minds, Douglas Walker’s debut solo show is funny, but also sad. Not too sad though. It’s sketches and stories. It’s a show within a show. There’s also a bit where he nearly drowns. “An effortlessly affable and eccentric authoritarian, with a flawless talent for accents” (theatrebubble)

Nellie used to hate watching couples kiss in public, but one day, on the train, there was a drunk couple passionately making out next to the doorway that joined the carriages. Suddenly, the girl vomited into the boy’s mouth and the dude didn’t even seem mad and they cleaned up the mess together. This is a stand-up comedy show.

Growing up, my preacher man father made me draw Bible stories. I don’t remember the stories, but I draw great. My previous shows had short jokes, and tall stories. I thought it was high time to combine these with my drawings. Especially since Rolf Harris left a gap in the market. A modern day comedic and visual take on those Grimm’s classics.

the beat of Fringe

How do we come to form bonds with one another? What can make - or break - a human connection? This double bill of contemporary dance debuts two innovative works from emerging Western Australian artists. Inspired by social interaction, Rikki Bremner and Trihedral Sector explore and abstract our innate desire for connection.

No Lights No Lycra

Ophelia

Presented by No Lights No Lycra Perth

Presented by Yvan Karlsson & Ellen-Hope Thomson

No light, no teacher, no steps to learn, just free movement with a live DJ in the dark. A safe space where you can completely let go, shake out your stress, and lose yourself in the music. There are no disco balls, no phones, no dress code, no inhibitions, no judgement. The best part? No-one is watching. They’re just dancing, too.

Lose yourself to insanity as we take you inside the body and mind of OPHELIA. A character whose love for a lunatic descends her into madness. A dance theatre experience where death looms large, love is lost, and dead flowers reign. Is this a dance party? Or a funeral?

Part theatre, part dance, part massive misunderstanding, Speechless is a bi-lingual conversation between two female bodies, whose understanding of the absolute is absolutely undermined by the slipperiness of language.

Movin’ Melvin Brown: The Ray Charles Experience!

Presented by The Lost Quays

Presented by Movin’ Melvin Brown

Like so much flotsam adrift on the musical sea, certain talented vocal refugees recently washed up below the cliffs of maritime tradition. Much was lost but shanties began to appear near the Quay of Sea as these undesirables ‘rediscovered their roots’ and began to sing up a storm. Beware: rhythmic stomping and growling may be contagious!

Get ready for a whirlwind tour of the music legends that inspired Ray Charles on his rise to success! From Swing, Jazz, Blues, to Gospel, Pop & Rock’n’Roll. Featuring songs of Nat King Cole, Jackie Wilson, The Beatles, Sam Cooke & more - Award winning Movin’ Melvin’ll bring The Ray Charles Experience live in Song, Dance and Tap! #MovinMelvin

C.D.

Chrysanthemum Gate

Presented by The Blue Room Theatre Summer Nights & Alice Mary Cooper

Presented by GENDERMESS Productions

Presented by Andrew Sutherland & Chanel Ariel Chan

How do we survive contamination? What does it mean to live on soil that can poison and destroy? Based on research about communities living with these questions, Blue Cow explores what it means to be contaminated, in a humorous and dark story that is both personal and universal. “A born storyteller” The West Australian (2015) Tickets: $10–$20

2 human vessels, a box of identities and a playlist of characters. GENDERMESS present an experiment: drag performance in its most minimal form. No glamorous costumes, no back up dancers and not a rhinestone in sight! Just the bare essentials of a box, the power of the lip-sync and the illumination of stage lights.

A pretty girl who just wants to be an artist, and an artist who just wants to be a pretty girl. Theatremakers Chanel Ariel Chan (Singapore) and Andrew Sutherland (Australia/Singapore) join together to interrogate contemporary rituals of sexuality, power and race in Singapore.

Hand Full of Tens

Hard Core Mysteries

Heart Lines

Presented by Fairly Random Inc.

Presented by Pierre Ulric

Presented by The Strawboat Collective

Edgy, fast and unexpected. This show will definitely be the best ten minutes of your year - five times in a row. Come and experience the growing phenomenon of short theatre, laugh, cry and leave feeling a little bit violated... Then come back for more. “It was immoral and disgusting. I hated it.” - T. Abbott “I’ll be back.” - Arnie

Witness what the rumours are all about... Time to push the limits of your imagination! International mystery performer Pierre Ulric blends hard core sleight-of-hand, illusion, psycho-thrills and neovaudevillian antics to create a meaningful, fun and dynamic act. Certainly this is theatrical surrealism at it’s best. Do not miss it.

Heart Lines is a new work which explores the lives of two youths involved in a heart transplant. Although they never meet, the interconnectedness that exists between the heart donor and heart recipient is ever present. Audiences will enjoy the many tender and humorous moments in this moving piece of theatre.

LAY DOWN YOUR CROWN

Presented by The Blue Room Theatre Summer Nights & The Cutting Room Floor

Presented by The Blue Room Theatre Summer Nights & Worklight Theatre UK

Presented by Sally Newman and Lyrical Infusion

Do you like to play the blame game? Mary, Louise and Andy love to play the blame game. Inside We Hide is a thriller about escape & all those dirty little denials that we hide inside ourselves. When the blame can no longer be shifted, these people are forced to face their worst enemy, their hardest critic & their deepest problem - themselves.

A funny, moving and true story about mixed heritage. Joe Sellman-Leava charts his childhood in 90s rural England, examining curiosity, fear and where he’s really from! Winner of a 2015 Fringe First, the Holden Street Theatres’ Award, and shortlisted for Amnesty International’s Freedom of Expression Award, don’t miss this Edinburgh smash-hit!

We live. We die. Somewhere in the middle we confuse ourselves with life. Who do you see when you look in the mirror? Would you follow Alice down the rabbit hole? Black or white? Life or death? These sixty minutes will be a collision of poetry, acoustic music, emotional theatre and the promise that questions will be left unanswered

Lovely Lady Lump

Mentality.

MEOW!

Presented by Lana Schwarcz

Presented by Joondalup Entertainers Theatre School - JETS

Presented by The Blue Room Theatre Summer Nights & jedda productions

How would you feel if you lost control of the way you think? If your life started falling apart around you, how would you cope and who would you turn to? A story of how grief can affect your life and the people around you.

If Andy Warhol and Louis Wain the cat artist had a baby, their progeny would be the inimitable Ludi Clawhol. When a reporter arrives, a wicked hour of beat-poetry, tequila and bongos ensues. Add in a litter of cats and some interpretive dance, and matters ricochet between the sublime and the ridiculous. Groovy fun with whiskers and a tail!

Last year, Lana was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. So she wrote some jokes. And made a theatre show. Spoiler alert: She’s back. “Pure comedy with a serious edge. Schwarcz is like fizzy soda - effervescent” - Uptown Magazine “Bubbly, wacky, unique” - Glamadelaide “Brilliant and unusual” - Winnipeg Free Press Tickets: $23–$25

Be prepared to share your stories and follow the improvisors as you get a chance to encounter the real people behind the UFO sighting, see lovers meet, a freak accident or the moment an unexpected gift changes a life.

Dunedin, the bottom of New Zealand’s South Island, 1998. A night of vigilante poetry, Karl Marx, Joni Mitchell, the Backstreet Boys, and my best dead friend. A new show from NZ theatre maker Anya Tate-Manning that is full of grief and comedy, Bob Dylan and B-rock.

Roommates: Live from apartment 19 Presented by Top and Tail Theatre Company

Sit by the pool, have a cocktail. You’re at a resort now. Just don’t look at the explosions. Yes, the sky was always purple. It’s fine. The world can’t end when you’re this relaxed. From the team behind 2014 FRINGE WORLD hit The Pigeons comes Resort Apocalypse, a dark comedy that’s a sassy, wild, and sad goodbye to civilisation as we know it.

Toby lives in apartment 19 by himself - well at least he did until his best friend Jon invites himself in and sets-up a system of cameras. After finding out about this, Toby questions Jon and finds out that the apartment is now the set of ‘Roommates Live’, a live-streaming sit-com.

Locked Up In Our Own Story

Presented by Interface

Interface is an exhibition of new work by six early-career female artists. Approaching contemporary textiles through diverse processes, the exhibition examines and subverts this traditionally feminine form. Exhibiting artists: Carla Adams, Anna Dunnill, Kate Power, Mariaan Pugh, Jessica Tan and Gemma Weston. Tickets: Free

The exhibition’s ongoing conceptual themes revolve around how the individual creates and negates meaning within contemporary Western society. Locked up in our own Story comprises a series of collaborative self portraits, with each artist drawing/painting themselves and their family members.

Participation in Practice: Panel Discussion Presented by Moana Project Space

Join in a discussion about participation in contemporary art, and the role of the audience today. How much is too much responsibility, and is this all a con job to outsource the content? A group of practising artists come together to talk about their use of participation, and whether it makes for better art. Tickets: Free

Long after lust and infatuation fade, one thing still remains in any relationship: fighting. Speedfighting turns on its head the usual dating ritual; by asking the participants not how well they get on with another person, but how well they can argue with them. Suitable for singles, couples, and anyone looking for a (strictly verbal) fight. Tickets: $12.50–$15

WTF Renaissance Presented by Angela Thompson

Exhibiting in Perth for the first time, WTF Renaissance (Winner People’s Choice, Melbourne Fringe 2015) bring you paintings that are old as f*** with captions that are new as s***.

FRINGE WORLD PRESENTS

g Fringe goes road-trippin across Westralia!

FRINGE WORLD Regional

Reaching Western Australians, right across the state Since the first FRINGE WORLD in 2011, the Festival has been providing a platform for local acts and artists to present their works in Perth and also providing touring opportunities for artists from all over the world to entertain regional audiences. Our Spiegeltent has toured to Karratha with support from Woodside and to Geraldton for G-Fest. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also presented Fringe programs in Albany, Bunbury, Geraldton and Broome. The Fringe wheels keep on moving round this fine state with the support of some key long-term partners including Lotterywest and Woodside. Lotterywest assisted us to acquire De Parel Spiegeltent for the very first FRINGE WORLD program in 2011, the same year that Woodside came on board as one of our founding and favourite ongoing partners.

Additionally, our Outer Fringe program delivers a microtour to some of the sweetest community venues across the Wheatbelt, Goldfields and Great Souther Region. The Department of Premier and Cabinet kick-started the Outer Fringe in 2013 and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pleased to be continuing to spread Fringe-taiment across the state through this program. The 2016 Outer Fringe program will be taking a Kids Spectacular to Kalgoorlie on Feb 12, Esperance on Feb 13 and Ravensthorpe on Feb 14. Following on its tails will be a cracker Comedy Gala to Mullewa on Feb 5 and Northam on Feb 7. More information at
