- **Event Description**: From Down Under to the Top of the Podium - the riveting true story of the first and only Australian to win the Tour de France, Live on Stage.

Direct from a critically acclaimed, 5-star sold-out season at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and sold-out seasons in Geelong and Perth, Connor Delves' epic one-man show, CADEL: Lungs On Legs, makes its triumphant Bendigo debut.

CADEL: Lungs On Legs is an atmospheric and high-octane theatrical experience that chronicles the incredible true story of Cadel Evans, the first and only Australian to win the Tour de France. The show places audiences in the saddle, delivering a visceral account of the sacrifices, heartaches, and sheer determination it takes to conquer cycling's most prestigious prize.

This gruelling solo performance sees actor Connor Delves on stage for the entire show, pedalling on the actual 2011 yellow BMC “Cadel Evans” SLR01 that Cadel Evans rode to victory in the 2011 Tour de France. His physical performance, combined with vivid storytelling, brings the epic race to life, including live commentary from the legendary "voice of the Tour de France," Phil Liggett.

The production has garnered immense critical praise, with reviewers hailing it as a "real tour de force" and "the best thing I've seen in 24 years of the Edinburgh Fringe." It was awarded “Best Show of the Fringe” by Theatre Weekly (Best of the Fest 2025), was a 5 star “Pick Of The Fringe” and won an EFFTA Award (Edinburgh Festival Fringe Theatre Award).

Cadel Evans himself has given his full support, stating, "Connor's vision for this show is bold and exciting... I'm deeply honoured that an Australian artist has been inspired to bring my story to life."
