Holographic Charizard

At the 2025 Adelaide Fringe we pulled a Holographic Charizard live on stage. Come see if we can do it again!

This is the show for Pokemon Fans. Every song is about Charizard, interspersed with stories that take you on a journey of love, betrayal, hardship and humour. The show mixes comedy, acoustic guitar, booster packs, magic and other spectacles alongside positive and uplifting crowd interactions (unless they are squirtle fans).

You will hear all the nostalgic cult classics including 'A song about Charizard', 'I choose you Charizard' and 'Why did you have to leave me Charizard'. Along with a song written entirely in Indonesian, 'lagu lagu Charizard harus Dangdut la'.

Pokemon knowledge is not required but encouraged. Everyone who attends will receive a free Pokemon card.

Presented by: Thomas Begg

Thomas Begg presents two shows in 2026: Holographic Charizard, a comical music show about the greatest Pokémon and Pokémon card ever made, and Learning Indonesian with Om Tom, a comedy show delivered bilingually in an effort to build bridges between Indonesian and English-speaking communities.
