Adelaide Fringe-goers are in for a treat when Head First Acrobats bring back PreHysterical – an award-winning, hilarious circus show for children and adults of all ages.
Playing every weekend in The Vault, a new custom-built dome circus tent in Fool’s Paradise, PreHysterical follows three foolish Neanderthals as they struggle to survive in the real world. The trio must learn to work together to avoid dangerous predators and navigate treacherous environments such as caves with terrifying tigers, waterfalls full of electrics eels, and creepy animal boneyards.
Sounds spooky, right? Well, not quite. This light-hearted romp is meant to have everyone crying tears of giggles, as opposed to something scary.
Audiences can expect quirky slapstick comedy intertwined with awe-inspiring circus tricks and acrobatics, offering something the entire family can enjoy.
Award-winning entertainment company, Head First Acrobats, have proved crowd-favourites at Fringe Festivals year after year. As a company, they are dedicated to providing world-class circus and physical theatre performances, thrilling audiences at festivals across Australia and internationally.
Come one, come all, for a fun-loving, kid-friendly comedy spectacle guaranteed to impress!
The reviews from past years are all glowing in the lead up to the 2023 Fringe, giving Adelaide a bit of insight into the quality of this primordial performance.
