'20-something misfits, Twiglet and Boots, live in a ramshackle house on the outskirts of suburbia, where buildings are just waiting to be gobbled up by developers. As Boots prepares to move out to work for their mum’s company, the pair is determined to make the most of summer while they can. But with an old Possum marrying their lemon tree, a vagabond Cowgirl officiating the ceremony, and a Vulture circling the property, things are bound to get interesting…
'Incorporating elements of music, poetry, ritual and revelry, ‘Lemon Tree on Dreg Street’ is a heart-on-its-sleeve ode to those who slip through the cracks, a love letter to the places we make sacred, and a celebration of the deep human need for belonging. Written by Amy May Nunn and directed by Miranda Middleton, it will welcome audiences into a community of oddball characters and invite them to participate in a wedding like no other.'
