Romeo Is Not the Only Fruit 2019 single work musical theatre

'A musical romp better than the best mod-rom-com, Romeo Is Not The Only Fruit takes the star-crossed lovers that audiences know and love, and makes them better as star-crossed lesbians.

'Featuring an original score, Romeo Is Not The Only Fruit stars a Chorus of Incompetent Dead Lesbians trying to stop Juliet and Darcy from becoming their new favourite, dead, girl-on- girl romance.

'Featuring lesbians galore, a spicy score and an even spicier ending, this is the irreverent, laugh-out-loud lesbian musical you and your straight friend deserve.'
