This show belongs to the Adelaide Fringe 2026 season. This season is now over.

A white appearing woman in a pink dress is looking shocked. It's very camp.
A very camp image of a white appearing woman in a pink dress, with pink hair, is holding a pink, sequined cowboy hat above her head. She's looking up at the hat. There are smaller versions of her hanging, holding on to the rim of the hat. The main woman looks kind of happy but the little ones look a bit scared.
A very campimage of a white appearing woman in a pink dress, with pink hair, is holding up her left hand, which is wearing a pink baseball mitt. The woman is looking up as if catching something. Then there are smaller versions of her floating above the baseball mitt. One is sort of standing in the mitt and then there's one upside down with her arms reaching above her head (pointing down), and then one up near the main woman image's head. She has different facial expressions in each image.

Lucy Best Unbelievable

Most people have an unbelievable, fantastical story from their life—the kind that makes others question if that really, truly, happened. Thanks to an unconventional life, Lucy Best has collected more than most.

In her brand new intimate one-woman storytelling show, Lucy unpacks a treasure trove of real-life tales that are often hard to believe. From near death experiences, to brushes with fame, Lucy will share deeply personal true stories to take you on a rollercoaster ride through the embarrassing, the confronting, and the sometimes hilarious moments that make up the rich tapestry of her life.

Expect clowning, impressions, and plenty of laughs.
