Overview
It goes without saying that the return of Sydney's performing arts scene is great news for creatives — but it's probably less good news for those of us who might not know where to start. Sample a bit of everything this month at Sydney Fringe Sideshow, a nine-day festival of over 100 events taking place across venues in and around The Rocks.
There'll be performances every night from Friday, February 25 until Sunday, March 6, leaving you plenty of opportunities to explore local comedy, theatre, music, dance, art and more as you lose yourself exploring the hidden pockets of the historic precinct. If you're in need of a laugh, check out 7 Comedians for $29 at The Terraces, where you can catch a diverse (and fast-moving) lineup of comedians each performing a 10–15-minute set. This show — which this year features the likes of FBi Radio host Harry Jun (pictured below), Alex Jae and Steph Broadbridge — has been a Sydney Fringe Sideshow sell-out for the past seven years, so be sure to book tickets ASAP to snag your spot.
If you are looking for something a little more on the fringe, then The Lounge Room Confabulators is the show for you. Step into a makeshift home to experience a storytelling show created and performed by Stuart Bowden and Wil Greenway for this award-winning show that has played to full houses at festivals in Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Edinburgh and Oslo.
For those wanting to get lost in some beautiful music, make sure to check out Prinnie Stevens: Lady Sings The Blues. The celebrated Australian singer will showcase her velvety vocals in a show that explores the pain and beauty of women in song, via music originally performed by a range of greats from Billie Holiday and Etta James to Sade and Beyoncé. This one-night-only show promises an unforgettable performance in a sultry speakeasy-style setting at the Observer Hotel.
