Final week of Fringe World 2025 frivolity with highlights galore including Elixir Revived

The Fringe World 2025 fun is not slowing down as this year’s festival somersaults into its final week.

Just ask the cast of Head First Acrobats. The Fringe World circus staple have returned to Perth for the second half of the festival season with Elixir Revived.

The internationally renowned artists behind hit shows GODZ, Railed and PreHysterical are back with an updated version of their show that started it all, Elixir.

The remake is a highly entertaining blend of physical comedy, raunchy humour and athletic ability as four scientists with chiselled abs attempt to create the elixir of life.

“Elixir Revived features, without a doubt, some of our most dangerous stunts to date, plus our wacky sense of humour, which audiences have come to know and love,” co-founder, breakdancer and internationally acclaimed acrobat Thomas Gorham said.

Street performer-turned contemporary circus artist, co-founder and Elixir Revived host Cal Harris added: “Audiences can expect everything they love about the original, but this time around we’ve gone bigger, bolder and, dare we say, sexier?”

Those looking for more laughs still have time to catch comedians including Wil Anderson, Alex Ward, Emma Krause, Amy Hetherington, Gillian Cosgriff and Michael Hing.

Music offerings range from Adam Hall’s Juke Joint and Lisa Woodcock’s Millennial: Hits Of The 90s & 00s to Shake It Off: The Ultimate Taylor Swift Experience.

There is still time to get Jealousss with Briefs Factory, and Bernie Dieter’s Club Kabarett has added an additional week of shows by popular demand until February 23.

For something a little more visual-arts-oriented, Rocky Bay has partnered with Fringe World for a third year to showcase Delicatessen, an art exhibition celebrating artists with disability.

Fringe World 2025 is on until February 16. Program and tickets at fringeworld.com.au.
