1.5KAdelaide FestivalFestival Review: Ulster American
This play sings, it gallops along at a pace that threatens to throw you off the bus if you don’t keep up. It throws in your face challenges that make you laugh and wince at the same time. It is a metaphor for the times we live in

1.8KAdelaide FringeFringe Review: Brat Kids Carnival
From the creators of the very adult show, Briefs, comes the even more awesome kid's show, Brat Kids Carnival.

1.5KAdelaide FringeFringe Review: Bin Laden: The One Man Show
To many of us Bin Laden is a mystery figure. Demonised by the press and often painted as pure evil. If you have ever thought about the subject you may have concluded that he must have been at least charismatic to inspire so many followers, but his motives are not clear to us.

1.3KAdelaide FringeFringe Review: Age of Stephen
Stephen Valeri masquerading as Johnny Farnham masquerading as Stephen Valeri is a really entertaining hour in the presence of this very vocally talented young man and his equally musically adept co-contributors Kelli-Anne Kimber on keyboards/vocals and Caleb Garfinkel on Guitar/vocals.
