“The intelligent analysis and modern queer theatre accent of Fruit Box Theatre speaks to us in challenging but necessary terms”

Paul Nolan, Sydney Arts Guide

Coming Up…

Join us for a hilarious and heartfelt evening of storytelling. For one night only, five queer storytellers will spin true tales from their lives, inspired by the prompt RENEWAL. Ripe with love, wisdom, nonsense and folly, join us as we hold space for the messy parts of queer life and share a little of your own (if you feel so inclined).

Off the back of their successful season at The Old Fitz Theatre, FRUIT BOX THEATRE’s gritty storytelling event Queer Compost comes to Bondi Festival with a night for the leftovers, the scraps and the fruit gone bad. The tales and stories too queer for the main meal. Hosted by Madeleine Gandhi, buckle up for the sheer joy of some good old-fashioned storytelling.

About Us

Founded by Madeleine Gandhi and Sean Landis in 2021, Fruit Box Theatre is an independent LGBTQIA+SB theatre company based on Gadigal Land (Sydney, Australia). Our mission is to strengthen intersectional representation, build community through storytelling, and lead creative processes guided by connection, integrity and respect.

We develop and produce original works that explore the spectrum of queer life – beyond tropes of shame, isolation and discomfort.

Fruit Box takes creative works from conception to fruition by collaborating with our community.
