Em & Maddie Solve Your Problems

Got a problem? Em & Maddie are here to help!

Em and Maddie are two unapologetically Disabled Queer girlies in their 30s.
They ain't got nothing figured out, except that they love to be the centre of attention. And when it comes to dishing out unsolicited advice, they're all over it!

So expect the unexpected (and some good laughs) as Em and Maddie solve ya problems, big or small. Everyday ableism? Ridiculous situationships? Housemate dramas? Out of control pets? And just how much is too much Taylor Swift?

Come find out what all the fuss is about and why Sydney Fringe Festival awarded them the 'Adelaide Fringe Tour Ready Award Winner' and finalist for Best Comedy Show.

Presented by: Emily Dash and Madeleine Stewart

When Em and Maddie aren’t solving your problems, they’re making waves as leaders and advocates in Australia’s creative scene.
Acclaimed writer/actor/producer Emily Dash’s selected credits include her multi-award winning film “Groundhog Night”, her play “Freefall” and the successful podcast “Diversity Work”.
