Award-winning solo show about a man, his animated fish friend, and finding your place in a world that wasn't built for you.

Adam Kelly's ARCO is comedy, animation, and storytelling rolled into one unforgettable theatrical experience. Winner of Best Solo Show at FUSE Festival London, it's touring from Perth to Cairns for one day only - Sunday 30 August 2026 at CPAC Studio.

Two shows. Two audiences. One brilliant story about connection, courage, and a fish named Finbar who's still learning to swim.

For families. Ages 7-12. Sunday 30 August, 2pm.

Meet Finbar the fish and join Adam Kelly on a heartfelt, funny journey about being different in a world where everyone's expected to be the same.

Arco Snr

For adults. Ages 15+. Sunday 30 August, 7pm.

Adam Kelly doesn't hold back in this raw, honest version of his award-winning show. For more mature audiences, the show considers Adam’s experiences of rejection, celibacy and optimism, and what it means to navigate a world where the rules were written for everyone else. Funny, moving, occasionally uncomfortable, completely unmissable.

60 minutes including Q&A with Adam after the show.
