The Christmas party for everyone who dreads Christmas (but loves a party)
Christmas. It comes earlier every year. No sooner are the ghouls out than the grinches are in. Luckily, we have a gift you can book now for you and all your friends, so you don’t have to think about presents and end-of-year wrangling again!

Melbourne’s Fat Fruit and director Susie Dee have created an all-star Christmas spectacular that pries the festive season out of the cold hard hands of capitalism and into your hearts. There are aerial elves, a tap-dancing turkey, a singing punk Grinch, a dance from Fossi the Snowman, the Carols by Candlelight hosts from hell and so much more in this musical, adults-only, variety circus show of your festive dreams.
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.
