FRINGE – Gady Lala: Songs for the Sophisticated Faghag – 5K

Quite possibly the highlight of the 2012 Adelaide Fringe, Gady Lala: Songs for the Sophisticated Faghag is an unapologetic and absolutely raucous celebration of self-pride and confidence. 5K

FRINGE – Cabaret de la Burlesque – Nexus – 4K

Cabaret de la Burlesque is an entertaining romp not to be missed. 4K

FRINGE – Adelaide Comedy Debate – Arkaba – 2.5K

At nearly four hours long, it was perhaps a little drawn out, but it was an enjoyable evening. 2.5K

FRINGE: Somewhere Under the Rainbow – Cabaret – The Big Slapple – 4K

While not quite capturing the feeling of their last two Fringe appearances, the Jane Austen Argument provide a night of quality, funny and moving original music. New comers are sure to be drawn in by their charisma and their album is a great addition to the collection. 4K

FRINGE – A Doll’s House – Nexus – 1.5K

Other than for a few numbers, I found the rest to be a bit of a dull cat walk and false strip show.

FRINGE – A Kick in the Head and other Seduction Techniques – 4.5K

Through the acts of being bad, adventures in nightclubbing, a strange relationship with a horse and an Italian accent, James McLean is certain to leave you with laughing as well as enjoy his fantastic interpretations of over 10 songs.
