With just over a week remaining before the Adelaide Fringe Festival’s FringeVIEW ends, here are my tried and tested picks to see you through this weekend. I encourage you to get behind these artists, many of whom are local and independent, simply because they create high quality work. I’ve hand-picked these events from the FringeVIEW program based on the presenters/producers having been reviewed/profiled by me and my writers. Here are the direct links to their events and links to their reviews or profile articles from The Serenade Files’ archives.
There’s something to be said for those who have the courage to write, produce, and present original work. As Australia looks towards the future and the recovery of the creative and cultural sectors, here is one way you can support the work of artists: buy a ticket to their show. Enjoy streaming, enjoy reading, and have a fantastic weekend!
