Have you been looking through the Adelaide Fringe guide and finding it overwhelming to pick a show? I totally feel your pain! It’s always helpful to find some recommendations to make choosing a show easier.
To help with this, Adelaide Fringe awards the best shows each week. The Awards celebrate the diverse and wonderful shows presented throughout the festival season. The weekly awards are announced every week of the festival, and the overall awards are presented at a special in-person ceremony at the end.
Here are the week 4 winners to catch before everything wraps up this weekend!
