Working Management presents ' Courtney Act: Under the Covers' , as part of Adelaide Fringe Festival at The Garden of Unearthly Delights: The Box at 7pm on Saturday 17th February and Sunday 18th February 2018.

Courtney Act is currently more popular than ever, having recently won UK Celebrity Big Brother. Fans already loved her from Ru'Paul's Drag Race and as a previous contestant on Australian Idol in 2003. Her new fringe show 'Under the Covers' lets you into the bedroom of Act and she strips down like she never had before. The show is a combination of cuddle songs, love songs, sex songs and a tribute to her split life as both Courtney and Shane.

Her Saturday evening show was sold out and although she won over the audience with her quirky personality, quick wit and incredible voice, it was also quite noticeable that she was underprepared. Having told the audience because of her stint on Big Brother, she only got to rehearse her Fringe show for two days and was often changing her dance moves so she could move towards her songbook for the next line.

Fans love Courtney and as she owned the stage, no one minded that at times she didn't know what was happening next. She had multiple costume changes and three wig changes, but it was her finale that left the crowd speechless. She sang a duet with herself as Shane that was prerecorded. She sang 'Material Girl', while he sang 'If I Was A Boy'. It was her way of showing the audience she is often torn between her two personas.

Ending the show with Dolly Parton's 'I Will Always Love You' left the crowd cheering and in a loud applause. Courtney is brilliant at what she does and I'm looking forward to seeing what she'll do next.

Don't miss your chance to see 'Courtney Act: Under the Unders' at this year's Adelaide Fringe at The Garden of Unearthly Delights: The Box.
