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

A pale person with mid length curly brown hair looks out at the viewer, tired, alluring, mouth barely open. Their head is slightly tilted. They wear a loose white button down, pulled down over the shoulder, with a cream coloured slip exposed. They stand in front of a sheer white curtain, their shadow is stark against it.
In the foreground a shirtless person, with a pink towel accross their waist and their hands over their heads, seems to glide and dance towards you. The towel is at risk of slipping off, they playfully hold a wineglass in their hand. Their gaze is down, somewhat demure. Behind them, bathed in purples blues and pinks, and audience cranes to look at them.
The image is disconcerting. A person wears a loose button down white shirt, partially undone with the strap of a cream slip visible over their shoulder. They hold a wine glass out, and stare at it. They are against a white stripped background. It is unclear if the image has been flipped, if they are laying down, if they are standing.

Sexy Ghost Boy

Begin with a circle. Work your way up, slowly. Bravely. The Macarena happens to completion. Scream.

This is how you summon 'Sexy Ghost Boy,' an award winning and hilariously f***able spirit, described by witnesses as a hot mess mash up of Mr Bean and Marina Abramović. The show uses clown and burlesque to dissects the unspoken rituals and micro neurosis we have around sex.

Having split the sides of audiences across New Zealand, he now boldly propositions Australians to have an unforgettable evening of theatre.
