Psycho-siren Leah Shelton creates stylized, ridiculous feminist performance art soaked in cult references and dark humour.

Terror Australis

Terror Australis is a grindhouse cabaret edgier than a serial killer's machete. Performed by psycho-siren Leah Shelton (Polytoxic, La Clique, Vegas Nocturne), this f**ked-up outback Contiki tour is a frothing hot mess of black comedy, anti-burlesque and Hills-Hoist-pole-dance.

Trapped inside a sweltering pulp film mash-up, Shelton trawls through the roadkill of the Australian national identity to reveal a litany of brutality and paranoia, drenched in sweat and beer.

Come Down Under to a sunburnt country where cars rule, hitchhiking kills and dingoes eat babies.
