Love Letter to the 90s

Love Letter to the 90s is an intimate, funny, and deeply moving storytelling cabaret by Cherry Charleston that reflects on what it meant to come out as a lesbian in the 1990s, a time when being gay was still illegal in Tasmania and queer lives existed without legal recognition or protection. Through personal stories of love, protest, and survival, Cherry recalls a decade of the evolution of queer rights alongside moments of joy. Backed by a stellar lineup of singers, you can sing along with Cherry to iconic 90s queer anthems - kd Lang and Melissa Etheridge would be proud! The show is by turns raw, nostalgic, and celebratory: a love letter to chosen family, hard-won visibility, and the songs that carried a generation through isolation into pride. Trigger warning: this work references discrimination, death, and the impact of systemic homophobia.
