CRUISE

KXT25 SUMMER SEASON

12 - 22 February 2025

CRUISE by Jack Holden 

Set in London's Soho in the 1980s, Cruise tells the story of what should have been Michael Spencer's last night on Earth. Diagnosed with HIV in 1984, he's told by doctors that he has just four years to live, so as the clock runs down, Michael decides to go out in style. As he parties and bids final farewells to his friends, the clock strikes zero and Michael... survives. With the gift of life, how can he go on living?

Nominated for the Olivier Award for Best New Play in 2022 and now receiving its Australian premiere with Fruit Box Theatre, Cruise is a kaleidoscopic monologue celebrating queer culture and paying tribute to a generation of gay men lost to the AIDS crisis.
