THE GIZMO Hits The Adelaide Fringe in 2018! Image

The hit touring show, The Gizmo will have its South Australian premiere in the 2018 Adelaide Fringe. Based on Paul Jennings's famous novel for young people, The Gizmo is a physical comedy that appeals to the whole family.

Stephen is baited by his hero Flogitt into stealing. He steals the whirling, twirling illuminating Gizmo, that sends Stephen on an amazing adventure of self discovery. Finding it impossible to just simply get rid of the Gizmo by returning, burying or throwing on to a passing coal train, the Gizmo starts to exact its revenge by placing Stephen in several extra-ordinary situations!
