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 so many moments of joy.
Backed by a powerhouse group of women, the cast sings classic 90s anthems and provides lyrics so the audience to sing along.
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.
