Loved this show. All the performers were so talented, both in comedy and in a variety of circus skills. Couldn't stop smiling the whole way through. Will be recommending to everyone!

YUCK CIrcus have revived the first show of theirs that I saw at Perth's Fringe World several years ago - a confronting in-your-face spectacle of empowered female comedy, acrobatics and circus acts that will make you laugh, gasp, think, and possibly cringe a little if some of it hits a little too close to home. Step outside your comfort zone for a moment and watch these enormously talented performers do what they do brilliantly.

These five Australian women are awesome and very funny. All shapes and sizes, these women show us that they are a team of "gals" who can do anything they set their minds out to do. They are talented, versatile and very critical of the traditional Ozzy male's behaviour around women. These girls have no time for "macho men", they talk about periods, bleeding in public and openly confess to drinking too much. The "ribbon dance" is fantastic! These five women perform a warm and inclusive show. They are a tight group of professionals.

Such a fantastic show! The acts were amazing! I mean, a BOOB STAND!!! But even more was the HYSTERICAL timing, jokes, and most importantly the facial expressions.
DO NOT MISS THIS ONE!!!

Brilliant circus talent who are so self-aware their comic mockery is truly top-tier. Came for the acrobatics, left talking about the jokes (tho the acrobatics were also insane). Would hate to have missed it

Great sense of humour and so down to earth. I felt like I knew these Ladies and they were my drinking buddies. They were so funny and lovable, then they did some wicked circus things. Female solidarity but so jovial about it. Highly recommend.

My favorite circus show at the Fringe! These performers are wickedly talented and also incredibly clever. 100% commitment to every bit, the clowning was equally impressive to the acrobatic moments. I had a fantastic time!!
A Fringe must see!!!

Wowwww. Absolutely knock out show! Who doesn’t love Aussies doing back flips and taking shots at the patriarchy? Can’t wait to see these ladies again in the future.
