Max lies in bed wearing a pink corset and propping their head up with their hand. They look off wistfully into the distance. Their pink silk pillows are visible, and around them are empty pill packets scattered artistically.
Max, wearing pink theatrical makeup and with their long brown straight hair swept behind their shoulders stares down the barrel of the camera with a poignant expression. The shot is blurred so that a ghost-like echo of their face sweeps across the image.

SICK-STEEN

★★★★★ “A celebration of disability” - Louise Pascale, Mindshare

Returning to Adelaide Fringe 2026 after an award-winning debut season, Max Ray is once again ready to take up space and share their story with the world. With original content to make you both laugh and cry, Max will take you on a journey exploring their lived experience with chronic illness and disability.

Max will create a space where disabled folk of all ages feel safe and are able to feel seen, heard, understood, and celebrated. With a heart-wrenching original score, and accompanied by musicians Millicent Sarre & Sebastian Alexander, this is a bittersweet love letter to the realities of being 16 and sick.

With new content and new diagnoses, this season will be ‘sicker’ than the last. Literally.
