Lilikoi Kaos — The Hawaiian Hurricane — is going solo, and she’s not going quietly.
Too Much has got it all: cabaret, circus, comedy, magic, old-school videos, big heart, and even bigger costumes! It’s loud, it’s funny, it’s messy, it’s poignant, and somehow... it’s exactly what you need.
After a lifetime on stage, Lilikoi Kaos is finally taking the mic for herself. And let me tell you, she’s not holding back. Lilikoi rips back the velvet curtain to uncover the Kaos beyond the glitz and glamour.
Too Much simmers with the molten force of Pasifika heritage: the lived experience of a mixed-race woman weathering the pressure of difference, expectation and worth. And battling the idea of never being “enough” but always being “too much”...maybe “too much” is just right.
This is not just a show — it’s a joyful reckoning with legacy, difference, and defiance. Expect high level skills with feminism, and full-throttle feels as Lilikoi spins self-doubt into triumph and celebrates what it means to take up space — loudly, proudly, and unapologetically.
In the words of Mae West, "Too much of a good thing can be wonderful."
“Lilikoi Kaos’ larger-than-life attitude transcends all communication barriers.” — Sydney Morning Herald
“Audacious and jaw-droppingly skilled.” — The Edinburgh Guide

“Fun, funny, smart, challenging and sexy- if you haven’t already made it to see Too Much I highly recommend you catch it this Fringe. Like an effervescent onion Lilikoi takes us on a wild ride with matching costume changes. Absurdism of the inner critic peppered with a heady mix of unrelenting standards- pressures to both resist and conform to the racist and sexist gaze while occupying liminal space. And Puppets!
Frenetic, disturbing, engaging, heartwarming, brilliant.” Natalie
