This is a one page list of shows on at the Bakehouse for the 2012 Adelaide Fringe, so that you can plan your Fringe experience. If planning is not your style, then all you need to know is that, with SIX SHOWS PER NIGHT, the Bakehouse is the only place to be during the Fringe. We'll have a huge variety of shows starting at 6pm and continuing through till 9pm. Each show runs for an hour. So you can dine around the corner in the Hutt St restaurant strip before or after the show, or wander down to the Garden of Unearthly Delights - only a 10 minute walk away. Or you can hang out our our friendly foyer bar area and see several shows per night without driving anywhere else. The choice is yours!
