After winning Best Circus Show at Perth Fringe World 2025, the acrobatic geniuses behind Circus Sorbet are back with their debut of SPYHARD at the Adelaide Fringe! In an hour of lucrative state secrets, laughter, and love, audiences are in for a truly outstanding show.

The two person cast make excellent use of their venue at Gluttony’s Ukiyo, celebrating their 10 year anniversary with a standing ovation on their opening night. Played by the talented Anthony Tran (Antonio Tranderas) and jaw-dropping Fay MacFarlane (Faytasha Romanov), the duo shares their unique spin on classic spy tropes, scaling obnoxiously tall buildings, using classic camouflage techniques, and of course, going out in a blaze of glory. The show prominently features high-adrenaline aerial stunts, including aerial straps, corde lisse, and aerial pole, captivating audiences from start to finish. To compliment such feats, SPYHARD embraces the funny through witty mission instructions, animated facial expressions, and more than a few booty shakes.

One of the main highlights of the show was the hand-to-hand combat scene, flawlessly executed with the precision and speed that many professional stunt choreographers would be jealous of. This comes but moments after the duo defeats a flurry of bad guys and henchmen with high-energy kicks, chops, and nipple twists (*karate noises ensue*). Anthony and Fay are true masters of their craft, blending the fantastic with the funny through an iconic score and breath-taking acrobatics, topping things off with some awesome breakdancing!

Your mission, agent reader, should you choose to accept it: buy a ticket, watch the show, and tell everyone how amazing SPYHARD is!
