Person sits centred on a small stage set, hands clasped, surrounded by colourful props including flowers, vintage objects, and gold streamers. The scene is brightly lit and theatrical, with a shrine-like arrangement framing them.

A performer stands mid-gesture on stage, wearing a suit jacket and striped vest. Large text beside them reads, “I almost lost my goddamn mind laughing.” with the attribution “Exeunt,” set against a dark background.

Performer is seated at a keyboard on stage, mid-performance. Text reads, “This is sublime, one-person theatre made all the more enjoyable due to Maxwell’s comic delivery.” Attribution: The Adelaide Show.

I, AmDram

For musical theatre fans and haters alike, don't miss the FRINGE WORLD premiere of this award-winning love letter to hometown, family, and the cult of English amateur dramatics.

Join Hannah Maxwell for a joy-filled hour of amdram anecdotes, musical parodies and very basic choreography, telling the painfully-true story of her final year with her family's community theatre company; from her woeful audition for My Fair Lady, to coming out as gay (less traumatic).

I, AMDRAM has been performed 150+ times, charming audiences across the globe.

Winner of a Weekly Best of Theatre Award (Adelaide Fringe 2025)

Presented by: Hannah Maxwell

Hannah Maxwell is a theatremaker, comedian and raconteur from Hertfordshire, England. Her work is radically unradical and nonchalantly queer, blending spoken word, stand-up, music, multimedia and improvisation with the audience. Her solo shows, including I, AmDram, Nan, Me & Barbara Pravi and BABYFLEAREINDEERBAG, have toured internationally and garnered rave reviews, standing ovations and awards at Edinburgh and Adelaide Fringe Festivals, including a Weekly Best of Theatre Award, Lustrum Award and a nomination for the BBC Popcorn Award for New Writing. She developed a storytelling card game with her uncle (poet Glyn Maxwell) called Best Day Ever, and hosts the Best Day Ever podcast. As a director/dramaturg, she supports emerging artists to create impactful autobiographical performance.
