Adelaide Fringe: Adulting
Hi guys, I’m Jack! There is nothing better from the Mad March rather than the Adelaide Fringe. So, today, I’m going to talk about my experience about Adelaide Fringe Festival this year. The Adelaide Fringe festival runs every year from the 18th of February to 18th of March and it’s the biggest ticket selling arts festival with free entrance into the showgrounds! Most years, I attend the fringe together with my family and friends for a fun night out.

A heart wrenching, soul breaking song drew the show to a close with a twist. With tears and laughter in my eyes, I clapped until my hands hurts. Wishing that the night would never end. I found myself caught in an emotional and breathtaking show. Through music that was beyond my imaginations. I imagined the struggle that York was creating and I was enchanted by her every lyric, every movement and longed for that cherished eye contact. I listened as York empathetically addressed her audience. The pain of her own stories of becoming an adult was just as plain in her
