Some of these spaces are randomly filled with red, yellow and blue blocks of colour.

CANCELLED - A History of Hanky Panky

Comedy • Storytelling
Northern Territory • SA Premiere

Australia's only archaeologist/comedian, KC Martin-Stone, brings her third solo show to Adelaide Fringe - a witty & inclusive exploration of humankind's glorious sexual history, peppered with wildly interesting facts, mind-boggling trivia & 100% all-clean* comedy. 
 
Told with her trademark irreverence & insatiable curiosity, 'A History of Hanky Panky' is a thrilling guide to the strange and hilarious history of human sexuality, built on KC’s archaeological insights into cultural constructs of gender, sexuality & taboo.
 
Join KC as she takes you on a wild ride around the world, from Stonehenge to San Francisco, in search of the truth about humanity’s favourite hobby!

A History of Hanky Panky talks (in part) about how cultures construct the concepts of gender and sexuality, and how queer, trans, intersex and nonbinary people have always existed. Please join us on 1 March for a special session to explore these themes in a safe environment
