          <by role="office">The SPEAKER:</by>  I would like to welcome to parliament today guests of the member for Black, Thomas and Amy Wadsworth—it is great to have you in parliament with us today—and also some Fringe performers from the UK. I do not want to breach any parliamentary standards by saying their full name. The second name is Shakespeare and the first one involves the results of maybe having a few bevvies on the stage, which is part of the act. To James, Charlie and Richard, welcome back.</text>
        <text id="20250320d2e231b3a3e54581b0000301">They come to the Fringe every year. I met them in 2020 for the first time. Their favourite Fringe show is question time. They came three times last year. As a fellow Fringe performer who did a standup at the 2017 Fringe, I can see where you are coming from. It is great to have you here.</text>

        <text id="20250320d2e231b3a3e54581b0000302">We had Heather Croall in yesterday and a lot of people from the Fringe who were guests of the Minister for Arts. We are getting close again to cracking through that one million tickets sold for this year, which is great for our economy. If you just look at the crew from the Shakespeare show, they have been here for five weeks and they have spent lots of time on Kangaroo Island, in McLaren Vale and they have gone up to the Barossa (McLaren Vale is still their favourite) and they have had a great time.</text>
        <text id="20250320d2e231b3a3e54581b0000303">As well as all the visitors who come here to go and see performances, we actually have performers coming from around Australia and around the world to enjoy South Australia, to talk about it on their social media and to inject money into the visitor economy. So welcome to everyone.</text>
        <text id="20250320d2e231b3a3e54581b0000304">We are going to have some Indigenous students here, who are guests of the Attorney-General. They are in year 10 and they are work experience students doing a program through the Attorney-General's Department. They are not here yet, but they will be during question time.</text>
