Part MTV unplugged, part intimate bedroom lament, Rumour Has It: Sixty Minutes Inside Adele marries a modern day music legend with Australia’s newest cabaret star.

You’re invited to spend an evening with Adele: Grammy goddess, young mum, and potty-mouthed everywoman. Joined on stage by a big band of Australia’s best musicians, Adele rolls in the deep down under, spilling intimate details about life on the road, love on the rocks, and the prick who took a sledge hammer to her heart.

Starring Naomi Price in her acclaimed portrayal of pop idol Adele and featuring Adele’s biggest hits including Skyfall, Rolling in the Deep and Someone Like You, Rumour Has It has quickly become one of Australia’s most-loved original cabarets.

Considerations

Rumour Has It is recommended for mature audiences 15 years and over. It contains coarse language, sexual references and adult themes.

Since its inception in 2012, The Little Red Company has established itself as one of Australia’s most celebrated independent full-service production houses. At the heart of The Little Red Company’s original work is the development of contemporary Australian cabaret, drawing together world-class artists from diverse backgrounds and creating commercially exciting productions of universal resonance.

The Little Red Company has created five pop-culture cabarets and concerts - Rumour Has It, Wrecking Ball, Lady Beatle, From Johnny to Jack and Christmas Actually. These productions have been seen by over 100,000 audience members and have toured nationally and internationally to festivals and venues including Sydney Opera House, Hamer Hall, Queensland Theatre, Adelaide Cabaret Festival, Noosa Alive!, Melbourne Cabaret Festival and Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre. In 2014, Rumour Has It won a Matilda Award for Best Musical or Cabaret.

As a response to nationwide venue closures and widespread unemployment in the creative industries, in 2020 The Little Red Company created The IsoLate Late Show - a music and variety show streamed live every Friday night. Across 10 episodes, the show was watched by over 300,000 unique viewers and raised more than $100,000 for the Actors and Entertainers Benevolent Fund.
