Vintage: Aged to Imperfection

VINTAGE: Aged to Imperfection

Your step-by-step guide to ageing (dis)gracefully, all whilst giving the bare minimum of f***s. Comedy cabaret legend Little Miss Mel, beloved for her sparkling parodies, powerful voice and questionable life choices, returns with her second show, following celebrated 5-star Fringe Favourite 'Crowded Blouse.' Live music and stunning harmonies performed by award-winning singer/song-writer Corey Stewart (musician and fellow truth-seeker).

Join our intrepid pair as they sail down the river denial, embracing the best and worst of what the prime of life has to offer. Laugh, sing along, and maybe even get a little philosophical.

Middle Age Rage? Come calm your farm. Hot flashes? No sweat. Brain fog? You came into the kitchen to get a snack, & buy tickets to Vintage.

Presented by: Short and Sweet Productions

Little Miss Mel (Short and Sweet Productions) presents her second Fringe show, following her 5-star solo Fringe debut 'Crowded Blouse'. A graduate of University of Adelaide where she majored in both drama and avoiding her law lectures, Mel has performed in numerous local bands, duos and shows all over South Australia as a singer/ guitarist. Mel was a founding member of wild acapella outfit 'Before You Were Blonde' in the 90s. After a Raw Comedy heat, Mel did a short stint on Adelaide's comedy circuit. And now, Mel has fallen in love & found her home in the comedy cabaret genre, which has captured her heart & re-ignited her love for storytelling and parody. For Vintage, Mel is thrilled to be joined by acclaimed singer/songwriter Corey Stewart, who will provide harmonies & live music.
