Happy Endings

Circus • Burlesque
Western Australia • Australian Premiere

Everyone knows the story of the girl in the red hood…or so they think.

Tone & Cheek returns with the award-winning, Happy Endings; a never-before-seen story of darkness and pleasure, featuring the most iconic fairytale characters you thought you knew.

Happy Endings takes you on an adults-only journey that explores the traditional themes of classic fairytales, and their opaque and carnal desires, through the guise of a reality dating show featuring a fanciful fusion of circus, burlesque, dance and live music.

Get ready to huff and puff as the cast of Happy Endings blows you all night long and leaves you begging for more!

"Happy Endings is sure to provide a good time for anyone in need of a sexy fairytale to liven up their Fringe experience." ★★★★★ See Do Eat Review, 2023
