Fruit Machine at Live Bait Theatre (Sackville, NB)
“Which is the greater treason? Treason to your country, or treason to your friends?”
The 1960s saw the Royal Canadian Mounted Police double down on their already aggressive campaign to eliminate homosexuals from the civil service. Driven by cold war induced paranoia of security risks the RCMP pointed their attention at the queer communities for their perceived “character weaknesses”. Taking historical text, real-life accounts, poetry, and movement Fruit Machine tells the story of hundreds through the bodies of four.
Fruit Machine, the debut creation from director Alex Rioux in collaboration with Solo Chicken Production, is both a haunting look at the harm paranoia-driven policy can do to vulnerable communities, and a memorial to the brave and powerful queer individuals who resisted an insidious, dehumanizing security campaign.
Tickets coming Soon!
