VIRGIN IN A KNIFE FIGHT - Rob Carlton
The Logie-winning WHITE LOTUS actor Rob Carlton returns with his new storytelling show, VIRGIN IN A KNIFE FIGHT! It begins with 18-year-old Rob on the backstreets of Salzburg in a three-person knife fight — but he's never used his travel knife on anything harder than cheese. From there, he dives into fun sexy times and moral panic, a bizarre courtroom showdown, and a moving story of fatherhood and friendship that lands straight in the heart. Finally, the knife fight returns, and what began as farce ends somewhere near hope! With warmth, wit and perfect comic timing, Carlton finds the funny in life’s chaos and the grace in its mess, discovering you can be a hero and an idiot at the same time! 2025 Winner: Best Theatre show at FRINGE WORLD Perth; Weekly Winner at Adelaide Fringe 2025.
You've seen Rob Carlton on White Lotus, Black Snow, North Shore, Dangerous Animals, Boy Swallows Universe, A Moody Christmas, Blue Heelers, All Saints, Water Rats, Home and Away and Chandon Pictures. This show has nothing to do with any of these!
