Though summer has come to a close, the festivities in Perth are far from over. This city is alive, shining bright with unforgettable experiences and events to enjoy (you just have to know where to find them).

And this April, there’s an award-winning circus and cabaret performance coming to Perth, on a rooftop, beneath the stars. Say less.

Rooftop Encore will run for four flirty and fun weeks; a unique event featuring two world premieres from some of Fringe World’s best acts: Naughties and Tuck Shop.

Fringe favourites YUCK are back with their new show, Naughties, celebrating all things Y2K. Think: Backstreet Boys and Britney and evERythinG TyPeD LiKe ThIs, mixed with high-flying acrobatics and ripper comedy. They were the winners of the Fringe World top-tier Martin Sims Award, Best Circus at both Melbourne and Sydney Fringe, and Best Emerging Artist at Adelaide Fringe.

The award-winning producers of Club D’amour and Happy Endings invite you into the world of glittering extravagance and unapologetic fabulousness that is Tuck Shop, a haven for the beautifully weird, wonderfully unique, and deliciously CAMP! It’s a fabulous fusion of circus, drag, burlesque, dance and live vocals in a bright, bold, and heart-wrenching story of love, pride, and the indomitable spirit of its star-studded collective of outcasted employees.

Fire dancing and fine wine

Feel the flames ignite by delighting your date with the mesmerising artistry of fire dancing, paired against the congruent backdrop of a starry rooftop sky. Add to the experience with a glass of Howard Park wine.
