F**k Christmas at Malthouse Theatre Tickets
About F**k Christmas
Release yourself from the capitalistic machine that Christmas has become and enjoy a wild, mutinous, hilarious holiday season celebration. Serving post-punk, anti-capitalist realness, this is an epic Grinchian party like no other, brought to you by a family of queers, rebels and runaways. It's time to flip four calling birds to secular traditions and embrace the festive chaos with Fuck Christmas.
Fat Fruit (Sarah Ward & Bec Matthews, Fuck Fabulous) and Director 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, Fuck Christmas unwraps our toxic secular addictions and makes room for alternative celebrations.
Welcome to Fuck Christmas — at last a holiday experience that truly sleighs.

"It’s messy, anti-mainstream and raises a glass to the diverse." - A Modern Gay's Guide (For Fat Fruit's production of F*ck Fabulous)
"Sticks up a defiant middle finger to the commodification of queer culture, the policing of bodies, and the rules of what it means to be definably feminine, masculine or anywhere in between." - Time Out (For Fat Fruit's production of F*ck Fabulous)
