Fringe World’s Guide to Getting Out of Awkward Situations

Perth’s beloved Fringe World festival has a new CEO and a hot new line-up for the 2020 Festival. CEO Sharon Burgess was one of the key leaders of Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and Fringe World’s upcoming program which features slapstick comedy, underwater micro cabarets, jaw-dropping pyrotechnic stunts and more to intrigue the senses.

Dreaming of escaping the clutches of your boss? There are still 10 pairs of all expenses paid trips to be won. Whoever said Singaporeans are boring are clearly misguided. From what we see, they have a pretty vivid imagination.

Cookie-cutter responses ain’t going to cut it. Here are some of our favourite responses by Singaporeans that have made the mark so far.
