“Adulting” Tash York is back

What happens at A club, stays at A club.

After an incredible Adelaide Fringe season with her hit show “Adulting” Tash York is back – and she’s back 6 months early! As a long time performer of the Adelaide Fringe, York is bringing her 5 star comedy cabaret to one of Adelaide’s most beloved venues, The A Club.

 Starting with it’s origins on twitter the term “Adulting” has become a huge online trend basically describing or congratulating oneself for doing “Grownup things”.  Things such as holding down a job, paying your bills on time, cooking dinner (that doesn’t just involve going to a Macca’s Drive-Thru) and even doing your taxes.

Tash York has paved a lot of her cabaret success from her previous award-winning show These Things Take Wine which showcased a lot of her own life experiences and this show promises much more of this signature style. ‘There seems to be a huge divide as to whether “Adulting” is a good or bad thing. As a person I often don’t make the most “Adult” life choices – well maybe that’s because I’ll never be able to afford my own house?” laughs York.

York is thrilled to be back in Adelaide again with her award-winning  solo show, after recieving huge success with it at Adelaide Fringe earlier this year. Known for her ballsy voice, dynamic energy York will be sure to  provide an evening of matchless comedy-cabaret in her new show ‘Adulting’. Pass up on some smashed avo and buy a ticket to see her in action!

‘Tash is captivating, extremely talented and will immerse you in her musical world’ – The Beat

‘Tash York, one of Melbourne’s great cabaret artists’ – We Know Melbourne
