hilarious, entertaining…expertly written, designed, and performed, and invited the audience to come on this rollercoaster with Sarah as we watched this young, 13-year-old girl grow into an established young woman, finding herself in this present, difficult time, and not letting her Katy Perry obsession take over her entire world ~ Josephine Hill, 16, Australian Theatre for Young People

How Katy Perry helped one fangirl on a bubblegum, bisexual adventure to pop her cherry.
It's 2008 and 13 year old Sarah is watching MTV when Katy Perry's 'I Kissed A Girl' comes on and her obsession with Katy begins.
On a cloud of cotton candy, Cherry takes you on an intimate, bubblegum, pop journey from fangirl Sarah’s awkward teenager years, to discovering the power of Katy Perry’s music, to ultimately becoming a confident, bisexual woman, and on the way invites each one of us to embrace who we fully are.
Through classic Katy Perry songs such as, Wide Awake, Part of Me, and Firework, Cherry hilariously and insightfully celebrates the power of music to transform and enlighten in this one woman’s thank you card to her idol.
