Neil Frost Brings THE DOOR to Adelaide in February
Performances run February 22 - March 7.
Award-winning silly man Neil Frost, one half of the acclaimed British double act The Establishment and winners of Best Comedy Adelaide Fringe Weekly Award 2019, is bringing his Nan’s old kitchen door all the way from UK to Australia for his first Adelaide Fringe solo show.
Inspired by a collection of old photos taken in front of his Nan’s door, Neil Frost’s hilarious theatre show brings long lost characters to life, as he reanimates his childhood costumes and unravels the past.
Performing at The Courtyard of Curiosities at the Migration Museum, Neil Frost: The Door is a nostalgic and heartfelt comedy about living with grandparents in 1980's Suburban Britain. Shows are at 5.20pm on 22nd, 29th February and 7th March.
