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

This promotional poster for Star Warz: Denude Returns has a bold, space-themed design with a black, starry background inspired by the iconic sci-fi galaxy setting. Across the middle, seven performers appear side by side, each spotlighted in a different colour of the rainbow - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet - creating a vivid Pride-inspired effect. Each performer is dressed in a playful, burlesque-style costume inspired by characters from a famous space saga: one in a shiny gold robot outfit, another resembling a Jedi in flowing robes, a green Yoda-like figure, a masked creature, and others in humorous, exaggerated sci-fi looks. At the top, in bright gold letters, the title reads: “STAR WARZ: DENUDE RETURNS.” Beside it, a warning states: “This show contains adult themes and inappropriate jokes that may offend. Viewer discretion is strongly advised.” On the left are two five-star review quotes from The Adelaide Hipster and The Adelaide Insider, and a FringeFeed mention. At the bottom, text reads: “It’s a trap! … a BOOBY trap.” Logos include Safe Space Alliance, Ardent Artiste Productions, Darwin Fringe People's Choice Award Winner, and an R18+ Restricted label, signalling that it’s an adults-only, cheeky parody burlesque performance. The overall feel is bold, camp, colourful, and hilariously risqué — promising a naughty, sci-fi burlesque adventure filled with sparkle and satire.

Star Warz DeNude Returns

We’re back, baby - and this time the galaxy is even naughtier! Star Warz: Denude (a parody show) is returning with brand new characters, fresh routines, and skits that are cheekier, ruder, and more inappropriate than ever. Think glittering costumes, hilarious parody, and burlesque numbers that will have you gasping, laughing, and maybe even blushing. Whether you’re rooting for the Jedi, seduced by the Sith, or just here for stormtroopers shaking what they’ve got, this is a show made for you. Grab your lightsaber, strap in, and get ready for a night of ridiculous, sexy, intergalactic fun. Nothing is sacred - and that’s exactly how we like it.
