Coming Up

SUGA by Max Hyner
1 - 5 September 2026
Brixton House, London (UK)

Drowning in debt, Harry signs up to a website connecting struggling individuals with wealthy ‘sugar daddies’ and begins a seemingly straightforward and initially transactional relationship with Daddy. As their relationship evolves beyond money, fantasies begin to clash with bitter realities; nothing is as sweet as it seems when it’s SUGA-coated.

Developed through Soho Theatre Writers’ Lab and longlisted for the Theatre 503 International Playwriting Award, this surrealist critique of late-stage capitalism follows one man’s attempt to keep his head above water in a system designed to keep pulling him under.

Coming Up

CRUISE by Jack Holden
9 - 31 October 2026
Seymour Centre, Sydney (Aus)

Nominated for four Sydney Theatre Awards including a win for Best Performance of a Leading Role in an Independent Production (Fraser Morrison), this sold out, five star “tour de force” (Stage Noise) returns to Sydney for round two.

Presented by Fruit Box Theatre and Seymour Centre, Cruise is an intergenerational monologue spanning four decades and over 20 characters, celebrating queer nightlife and paying tribute to a generation lost to the AIDS crisis.
