Studio3 Season: Fruitcake

About Studio3 Season: Fruitcake

It’s been a long time since things have been right between best pals Holly and Mikey, who all but disappeared during the pandemic. Holly still hasn’t forgiven him for being AWOL when her mum was dying, so when Mikey demands she return the Maroon 5 CD she leant him over a decade ago, she’s not best pleased.

Anger turns into concern though when she finds out why Mikey has been hiding away. He’s convinced he’s a modern day Nostradamus. Holly thinks Mikey needs an urgent medical intervention but Mikey hasn’t got time for that. He’s seen a vision of a catastrophe worse than anything that’s come before and he needs Holly’s help to stop it.

Fruitcake is a romantic comedy for the existentially weary. Can we dare to hope, in the face of daily doomsday scenarios, that we might actually be able to change our world for the better?
