This show belongs to the Adelaide Fringe 2022 season. This season is now over.

Rouge

Circus • Cabaret
Australia

Circus for grown ups: ROUGE is a decadent blend of sensational acrobatics, operatic cabaret and tongue in cheek burlesque. Winner of Best Circus Adelaide Fringe 2020, and weekly awards for Best Circus at Adelaide Fringe 2018 and FRINGE WORLD 2019, Rouge is a non-stop celebration of the astonishing, surprising, subversive and the supremely sexy.

★★★★★“One badass sizzler of a show”  Daily Mail (UK)

★★★★★“a sexy, slick celebration and empowering spectacle” Ed Fest Magazine (UK)

★★★★★"Sensual, sexual, sumptuous, subversive, sublime, saucy, scrumptious, sizzling, stupendous… I really could go on! And still, none of these words quite capture the orgasmic orgy of the senses that is Rouge" Out In Perth, 2021

★★★★★"Cheeky, flamboyant and sexy-as-hell" In Daily, 2021
