This show belongs to the Adelaide Fringe 2025 season. This season is now over.

An Age To Remember - A woman in a green shirt and black overalls, with long curly brown hair sits at a table. She is looking off camera with a small blue party hat resting askew on her head. Her mouth is full of cake, while her face and hands are covered in icing. In front of her is a demolished birthday cake with number 20 candles melted and falling. The cake is surrounded by paraphernalia; a world map, photographs of people, a stack of books (Lonely Planet's "Europe of a Shoestring", Sally Rooney's "Normal People" and William Shakespeare's "The Sonnets and A Lover's Complaint".

Cabaret • Theatre
Australia • World Premiere

Just before her 20th birthday, Abby asked the world (Facebook) advice for the decade of her 20s. Flooded with guidance from well-meaning friends, family, and that person she forgot to block. It’s time to check the comments and compare where life took her. Did she - Invest in property? Get that rash looked at? Shoot a man in Reno just to watch him die? Let's find out through song and a Facebook deep dive. And while you’re here – do you have advice for the next decade unravelling before her?

Whether they’re behind you, in front of you, or you’re smack bang in the middle… Join Abby, compare your 20s with the best friend you never knew you didn't want and bring your hopes and dreams for the 30s. Let’s reminisce, plan, and discuss the decades behind and before us. Advice: Optional.
