Speigel Zelt - Garden of Unearthly Delights
Adelaide
Musicals/Comedy
As a huge musical theatre fan, I naturally picked Flop! as my Fringe show for 2026. Over the course of an hour, Arthur Hull brought to light music from some of the musical theatre world's biggest flops, and he did so with a good dose of comedy but also an obvious love for the genre. The performance was high energy from Arthur from start to finish; it was clear he was having as much of a good time as the audience. Overall, I liked his choice of shows to highlight, though I had some ideas for more for him, which I sent him in a DM, for his future consideration. My husband came with me to the performance. Afterwards, he said he had found it funny and entertaining even though he is not a big fan like me and wasn't really familiar in advance with most of the shows mentioned, which shows you can still enjoy this one without a deep knowledge of musical theatre. It's playing in Adelaide for another couple of weeks, so if you are a local, I recommend checking it out. I am giving it 4.5 stars.
