How do we grow together?

This is the onion-smashing, cyr wheeling, tear-jerking tale of friendship. Styled like a cabaret, told like a story, join three besties and 100 onions in this ‘punk delight’ where growth gets messy. 

 

Meet Daisy, Jaide and Rachel, real life best friends, the day before the memorial service of their fourth bestie. Differently affected by the loss, and with gutsy teenage rage and compassion, they process raw emotions through raw onions and learn their collective strength to grow. 

 

With circus, lipsynch, and techno bops, bring your bestie and beware the onion splash zone!

Reviews

'Highly Recommended Show'

'A brilliantly written and right-rollicking night out. With moments of serious heart-to-heart, bitter recriminations and tender rekindling of friendships. There are tears in the audience at the end. ears of togetherness, of triumph, of release. Yeah, all right, it’s a cliché, but… tears of joy.

'A stand out, fun loving, piece of thought-provoking theatre, with joyful & outlandish onion-based theatrics.'

Audience Reviews

'60 minutes of cosy-punk delight'

'I got sucked in by the raw emotion and found myself crying, feeling 18 again'

'A joyful show very touching, and skilful!'

It was so beautiful and raw but at the same time extremely joyous!

It was authentic and relatable. I enjoyed the symbolism. The music was great also! 😊
