Golden Goose Theatre - October 2025
First scratch performance and development stage.
A sizzling, subversive romcom about polyamory, protest, and passion in a warming world.
When a dancer and a climate activist meet over margaritas on a Mediterranean cruise, their sizzling attraction seems like the perfect holiday fling. Until the pair realise they share more than just chemistry: both are in a relationship with the same person.
As potential romance explodes into fierce rivalry, the duo launch a competitive campaign of eco-sabotage against the mega-polluting ship. With the heat rising, can their connection and desire for a better world survive these dangerous waters?
During a year where protest has exploded globally, Cruising is a necessary and subversive exploration of both passion and protest. Beneath its warm romcom narrative, this play has a fierce underbelly. It urgently spotlights the collision of authoritarian anti-protest laws with impending climate collapse. More than that, in its connection between polyamory and the climate crisis, Cruising asks pertinent questions and provokes conversations about how our current systems have failed, challenging audiences to rebel in favour of community and human connection.
