Fuck Christmas
By Fat Fruit and Susie Dee
27 November 2024 – 15 December 2024 Merlyn Theatre
Malthouse Theatre,
Variety Circus Comedy World Premiere
Release yourself from the capitalistic machine that Christmas has become and enjoy a wild, hilarious holiday season celebration. A family of queers, rebels and runaways serving post-punk and anti-capitalist realness, this is an epic Grinchian party like no other. It’s time to flip four calling birds to secular traditions and embrace the festive chaos with F Christmas. Fat Fruit (Sarah Ward & Bec Matthews, F Fabulous) and Susie Dee invite you to kick back for a yuletide variety show that agitates the holiday season. Somewhere between a hallucinogenic, camp Christmas fantasy and a perverse, apocalyptic nightmare, F Christmas unwraps our toxic secular addictions and makes room for alternative celebrations. Welcome to F Christmas – at last a holiday experience that truly sleighs.
