Brand new, bold and boundary-pushing are a few choice words you can use to describe some of the fiercest First Nations talent in the country. Within the Melbourne Fringe Festival which runs from 3-22 Oct 2023, be among the first to witness and enjoy the 2023 Deadly Fringe Program from 7-21 Oct for an exhilarating lineup of fresh work from celebrated independent artists. Don't miss the very best new First Nations work in the country. With events across diverse genres, there's no limit to what you might experience at one of their shows at Deadly Fringe. Feel the ecstasy of collective dance at an immersive queer art-party inspired by iconic Blakfulla dancefloor culture. Hold your breath at fearless new circus about connection to land and spirituality. Have a laugh at a show-stopping new drag and burlesque variety night showcasing an all-queer, all-Blak lineup.
