**Winner of Pride Adelaide’s *****Event of the Year 2025 *****following a sold out Adelaide Fringe season**, Lindsay Prodea returns with his stellar 4-piece band, sequin jacket and timeless anthems. 

From the secret language of polari through the golden age of music, to the disco revolution of the 70’s, and songs of liberation and coming out; expect timeless hits from Madonna, Judy Garland, Elton John, Dolly Parton, Lady Gaga, Cole Porter, Diana Ross, Pat Benatar, Troye Sivan, Freddie Mercury, and many more! Equal parts hilarious and moving, it’s a joyful celebration of identity, community, and the power of music to heal and empower. 

**“Prodea packs a punch the whole night long. He channels Peter Allen to the nth degree – but sings a whole lot better. We laugh with him, we cry with him.” **

**– The Theatre Association of South Australia **

*Dorothy *returns to the Adelaide Fringe for **two shows only after headlining Pride Fest 2025 at the iconic Qtopia venue in Sydney**. The work received a **Best Weekly Music Show Award **and **Overall Best Emerging Producer Award **at last year’s Adelaide Fringe. Welcoming over 750 audience members across 4 sold-out performances last year, punters are encouraged to book before tickets run out.
