INTERVIEW: Markus Hamence is in The Jungle Room with Thomas Gorham from Head First Acrobats for the 2026 Adelaide Fringe hub Fool’s Paradise. Thomas and Markus chat the shows Elixir Revived, All-Star Circus and the insane array of top gigs playing in the Victoria Square location!

Elixir Revived
This is Cirque du Soleil meets Magic Mike. Sexy, bold and unmissable.
Elixir Revived is a wild, post-apocalyptic circus comedy packed with jaw-dropping stunts, irreverent humour, and world-class acrobatics.
Four eccentric scientists attempt to create the Elixir of life, and are forced to test the concoctions on themselves. Chaos and Mayhem break loose in the Laboratory, and what follows is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud spectacle packed with gravity-defying acrobatics, physical comedy, and more than a touch of cheek.
Critics have praised the show’s exceptional mix of humour and daring circus skills. Elixir Revived showcases both the beauty and the limits of the human body.
