Inspired by performer Hannah Maxwell’s quest for commercial success after a hit debut, and a follow-up seen by just two people including Phoebe Waller-Bridge, BABYFLEAREINDEERBAG is part one woman show, stand-up and focus group.
Blending storytelling, comedy and live audience participation, it explores how contemporary theatre is developed, marketed and consumed. Using meta-theatrical framing, audiences are invited to evaluate three half-baked, humorous and heartfelt solo-show concepts tackling family, relationships andthe current socio-political climate that critique today’s demand for confessional, viral-ready and screen-adaptable narratives.
Fresh from an acclaimed sell-out run at Edinburgh Fringe 2025, the show arrives at Adelaide Fringe as a timely reflection on the commercial and creative pressures shaping autobiographical performance.
