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

A group of seven performers pose confidently against a dark background. The central figure wears a bright pink dress with floral embroidery and a pink wig decorated with flowers. The surrounding performers wear bold, black burlesque-inspired outfits featuring lace, leather, and dramatic accessories. Their poses and expressions convey energy, glamour, and attitude. The title of the show 'Shake It' is in big text to the left.

Shake It

‘Shake It’ features the best of burlesque, sexy circus, and cabaret at the Adelaide Fringe. Hosted by pocket-rocket songstress Minnie Andrews, Shake It is one of the most fun and outrageous events at Fringe, with special guest acts from across the festival of burlesque, circus and cabaret. This will not be polite, this will not be gentle, we are SHAKING IT UP!
