“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…

CRUISE
By Jack Holden
Directed by Sean Landis
Coming to KXT on Broadway, 12 - 22 Feb 2025

“Let’s make sure we’re travelling so fast that the heat we generate when we reenter the sky will burn us up and paint the night with light.”

Nominated for the Olivier Award for Best New Play in 2022 and now receiving its Australian premiere with community-led Fruit Box Theatre, Cruise is an intergenerational monologue spanning four decades and over 20 characters, celebrating queer nightlife and paying tribute to a generation lost to the AIDS crisis.
