Adelaide Fringe 2025 | 19th - 22nd March | The Mill

Co-Produced By Burst Productions

A one-person darkly comedic play about growing up autistic (and not knowing it).

Stumbling into a therapist's office with a stack of paperwork, (and stories to match) Addy recounts what it was like to grow up in a small town Catholic school. Through vignettes from Addy's life, we come to realise the impact your environment can have on coming to accept who you are. We experience how someone may learn to abandon their childhood curiosity and natural expression in favour of an exterior mask: the polar opposite of the internal world.

“Comically unpacking the closure of a lifetime of luggage” - TheTheatre.au

“Hilarious, heartbreaking and full of nostalgia. A must see for anyone who felt left out or a bit different growing up.” - Anon.

“Witty, wonderful and heartfelt. This show deconstructs life, bringing thought to how every childhood scenario encompasses the mosaic of who we become” - Anon.

“Fantastic, thought provoking and funny” - Cara W.
