Review | On a wing and a prayer
Fiona O'Loughlin rocks. This is a great evening of comedy. The woman arrived on stage here in Adelaide to a sold out show of well wishers, and proved totally worthy of such great goodwill. She is very very funny and I think you would be sad to miss her.

Fiona O'Loughlin - comedy superstar, dancing queen, mother of five and recovering alcoholic -
She's back again for the Adelaide Fringe and it's been a very big year already!
In 2009 Fiona fell from grace. With her popularity never higher, somehow Fiona managed to well and truly tumble off the wagon and onto the pages of the national media. She turned on her favourite child (she'll tell you that's just not right!) and she took up therapy After a damn good run on Dancing With the Stars, Fiona finished up 2009 on a wing and a prayer, but much better off than she started. In amongst the entire media furore she's written a new show and left thousands across the nation breathless with laughter.
Fiona returns to Adelaide for the 2010 Fringe with her new show On a Wing and a Prayer playing in the Spielgeltent in the Garden of Unearthly Delights from 20 - 28 February.
Fiona's very public battle with the bottle has certainly taken her on a journey. As is always the case with Fiona though it's been a very funny journey. Her latest show On a Wing and a Prayer is Fiona's account of getting the dancing shoes off her feet and the drinking devil off her back.
On A Wing and A Prayer is at times poignant, always honest but above all hilarious. Fiona may not be your usual image of an angel, but her tales drawn from life are sent from comedy heaven.
