Fruitcake


Cherish the Orange

When May and Bea experience writer's block for an upcoming poetry competition, they decide to use personal information about their flatmates as inspiration. What ensues is a messy confrontation within the flat, causing the girls to reckon with their own fears about the future, missing out on their youth and past mistakes. Set during the lockdown, Fruitcake is a tender and comedic exploration of how the pandemic affected young people and their relationships. With a mixture of poetry, dance, conversation and improvisation – Fruitcake is a messy and vibrant homage to the intimacy, strength and hilarity of close friendships.
