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

A smiling woman in her 40s lays on a green bed, there are 90s music posters on the wall behind her. She has a diary open and a pen in her hand. She looks like a teenager.
It's the page of a teenage girls diary, there is a old photo of a teenage girl with Michael Jackson. There is a post-it note with lyrics from an MJ song and stickers of a 'my little pony' and troll. There's also cut outs of The Spice Girls and Natalie Imbruglia. It's nostalgic.

The Day I Met MJ - 90s Hits!

Dust off your Discman and Remember the Time of the pop anthem, Video Hits and all-nighters with Rage – it’s the 90s!

Award-winning Michaela Burger (ROUGE, A Migrant’s Son, Exposing Edith, Simply Brill) moonwalks down memory lane to reveal the moment she met Michael Jackson (nope, not at Madame Tussauds).

Get ready to Pump Up the Jam with Michaela’s powerhouse vocals, a live band, and – because The Music Sounds Better With You – a singalong or two. From Alanis to Radiohead, Madonna to No Doubt… if it was a hit, you’ll hear it!

Let’s Get Loud for a jam-packed hour of 90s bangers with one of Australia’s most critically acclaimed voices. It’s a celebration of the decade that defined a generation.
