Three individuals pose wearing different coloured trash bags as cute outfits in front of a hot pink background. They stand close together on three different plains in a triangle shape. The one at the back/highest plain has should length brown hair and wears a yellow trash bag. The one in the middle has long brown/red hair, wears a black trash bag as a two piece, and sits on an upside down silver trash can. The one on the lowest plain has dark broan hair in a ponytail, squats on the ground and wears a purple trash bag also as a two piece. They all have a mix of serious and goofy smiles on their faces.

three performers on stage, all wearing potato sacks as dresses. two are closer to the camera, standing very close and holding each other with one arm, and holding their other arm into the air. The third performer looks on from further away, with a confused facial expression.

three performers on stage with purple lighting, all wearing black leotards. They each hold up a trash can lid above their heads and have wide open mouths as if they are yelling.

Presented by: Sugar Bits

Steph, Nic and Tess are a collective of clowns who met at university, drawn to each other for their ability to be profoundly unintellectual and rigorously physical. Their work is driven by a desire to bring people together to create shared experiences that are new and adventurous, as well as playful and sublimely stupid. Since 2021, they devised a comedic physical theatre show for kids, and their debut sketch show as Sugar Bits, “Hit n Hope” gaining mentors Sharnema Nougar (director), Broden Kelly and producer mentor Janet McLeod. Expect playful ensemble moments of and a strong audience engagement, character and musical comedy. They see the personal as political and use their experiences to fuel parody, theatricalising current events and speaking to a wider feminist perspective.
