Chronically Ill-Prepared
Presented by Unscripted and Unmasked, Produced by Kate Gallagher (Tarndanya/Adelaide, Australia)

Prepare to laugh, reflect, and connect in a way you never thought possible. Chronically Ill-Prepared is an improvised show about embracing the chaos of life, finding humour in our challenges, and the profound beauty of sharing our stories. We invite you to see the world through a different lens - one filled with laughter, empathy, and the unexpected. Brought to you by Tarndanya/Adelaide-based improvisation troupe Unscripted and Unmasked following a successful season at the 2024 Adelaide Fringe. Don't miss this unforgettable experience that's captivating audiences with its boldness, bravery, and brilliance.

“Chronically Ill-Prepared plays with comedy and serious theatre and succeeds at both. It’s a great show, thoroughly enjoyable, stimulating the brain and heart, whilst making you laugh.” - Mark Wickett, Stage Whispers ★★★★
