It’s queer. It’s comedy. It’s Christmas reimagined.
This holiday season, we’re getting merry AF with an all-singing, all-dancing Christmas variety show – and everyone is invited!
Brought to you by Melbourne’s Fat Fruit and directed by the luminary Susie Dee, this all-star Christmas spectacular features aerial elves, a tap-dancing turkey, a singing Grinch, the Christmas carols hosts from hell, a risque cabaret routine with a candy cane, a live band and so much more.
Come revel in the ultra-maximalist, super sustainably made, camp Christmas pageant you’ve always dreamed of.

CONTENT NOTES
This production is suitable for audiences 18 years and over.
This production contains nipples, bare bums, full frontal nudity and may contain the rare sighting of pubic hair. There will be non-gratuitous swearing and adult themes like holding cognitive dissonance as the whole world collapses around us. There will be sexual references and unapologetic queers. Expect some haze, possible fast moving lights, loud noises and loud opinions. This production explores themes around Christmas and capitalism through satire and is more interested in questioning the relevance of SC than JC. We are in the business of punching up, so if you're in a place of privilege, cushion yourself with a sense of humour.
Please note, this work is in development and detailed content information will be available closer to the performance season. Please check back closer to the time of performance for an updated list of potentially sensitive content.
