There is one show that stands apart from the others at this year’s Adelaide Fringe, promising unparalleled variety. It’s called Amuse-Bouche.
Amuse-Bouche takes it’s name from French cuisine. Just as amuse-bouches (or mouth-amusers) are served before a meal as a tingler for the taste buds, this show gives audiences a sample of the best comedy, cabaret, circus and music acts, jam-packed into a talk-show format reminiscent of shows like Rove Live and Micallef Tonight.
Each night the Amuse-Bouche audience will meet three different Fringe acts who will be interviewed by hilarious host Pires Eddy. The guests will also compete in games and give audiences a tempting taste of their show along the way.

We posted a story recently about the Australian debut of Oz Comic-Con in Adelaide on the weekend of Saturday 31 March and Sunday 1 April, a feast of pop-culture in the spirit of other Comic-Con events around the world.
Now the organisers, DCA Enterprises, have put a call out on their website for volunteers to take part in the debut event, set to launch in Adelaide on Saturday March 31 and Sunday April 1, 2012 – before moving onto Melbourne next June.
This is an exciting opportunity for the local Adelaide community to get involved – the call out urges “enthusiastic and helpful people” (over the age of 16) to volunteer for what is bound to be a spectacular event for Adelaide.
The East End’s entertainment hub in Rundle Park, The Garden of Unearthly Delights, is back for its tenth year, and you’re invited to come and celebrate at an Opening Night Party this Thursday the 16th February from 9pm.

Artists: have you ever got to the end of your performance or exhibition, heard that applause, read the comments book and then wondered where your new-found fans will be going to next? Perhaps you have a substantial email list and know exactly who is attending. Or perhaps you hear (or read) the applause & wonder how to keep in touch with them after the buzz of the event.
