Sugar Bits are: FEMINIST TRASH
Knock over your trash cans – sketch trio Sugar Bits are spilling feminism all over the street.
Outstanding Ensemble Nominee 2026 Green Room Awards (VIC)
Golden Gibbo Nominee 2025 Melbourne International Comedy Festival
"A masterclass in curated chaos" ★★★★½ Upside Adelaide
"An absolute force of nature" ★★★★★ Binge Fringe
Smeared with the socio-political grime of Abbie Chatfield and the idiocy of Aunty Donna, these triple-threats are overflowing with absurd sketches, razor-sharp songs and characters validating the feminist experience. Multi-award nominated (always the bridesmaids) and more stars than you can recycle, it’s no wonder they’re the cult hit of Adelaide and Melbourne Festivals.
Your power trip is our FEMINIST TRASH!

Presenter
Presented by: Sugar Bits
Steph, Nic and Tess are a collective of clowns who met at university, drawn to each other for their ability to be profoundly unintellectual and rigorously physical. Their work is driven by a desire to bring people together to create shared experiences that are new and adventurous, as well as playful and sublimely stupid. Since 2021, they devised a comedic physical theatre show for kids, and their debut sketch show as Sugar Bits, “Hit n Hope” gaining mentors Sharnema Nougar (director), Broden Kelly and producer mentor Janet McLeod. Expect playful ensemble moments of and a strong audience engagement, character and musical comedy. They see the personal as political and use their experiences to fuel parody, theatricalising current events and speaking to a wider feminist perspective.Social media
