Revered for her many talents across singing, acting, directing, writing, and of course stand-up comedy, Michelle Brasier embodies all the magic that is Fringe.

“The most important moments of my life have been at the Fringe. It has always been a place for the weird kids to find ourselves, for artists to fall safely amongst each other and emerge a family. I can’t wait for Fringe 2025 and am already so excited about the program and community of artists. It’s an absolute honour!”

Bound for another sell-out season, catch Michelle’s show ‘It’s a Shame We Won’t Be Friends Next Year’ from 4-9 March at Gluttony.

Winner of the Adelaide Fringe Best Live Music Award 2022, Nancy Bates is an accomplished First Nations singer-songwriter and staunch advocate for Human Rights. Returning for 2025, Nancy will launch her new album ‘Share Your Love’, supported by world class musicians over two nights at The Arts Theatre. Nancy worked under the wings of national treasure, Archie Roach, from 2013-2017 and has since dedicated herself to the Songs Inside project where she works with women in prisons, to amplify and centre their voices within a national conversation about incarceration.

"As a 2025 Adelaide Fringe Ambassador I want to champion artists passionately, and remind all South Australians of the important role we play in reflecting our values, fostering connections, and inspiring a better political and social landscape, in the face of conservatism."

‘Nancy Bates & Friends’ will be showing at The Arts Theatre on 6 and 7 March.
