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.
PROMPT: RENEWAL
Tell us about the second chances you have given and received. Your sequels and second takes. We want to hear about the time you wiped the slate: perhaps you rekindled a romance against your better judgement, built a sharehouse filled with chosen family, or changed your career/love language/country/hair style (all at once?). QUEER COMPOST celebrates the gardens that have regenerated through heat waves and frost.

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). We take intersectional queer works from conception to fruition. Our mission is to strengthen queer representation, wellbeing and collaboration in the arts, and to showcase the full spectrum of queer life - beyond tropes of isolation, discomfort and shame.
