The strawberries #top40 Lyndsae and I did a very red duet at Links Hall in 2006 with a long red scarf I knitted that reached across the room and attached to the radiators. There were strawberries involved - the duet might have been called Fruit? I danced the whole thing with a strawberry in my mouth, I remember. We also gave a box of strawberries to a random audience member to do whatever they wanted. Some people ate them, some shared them, one person threw them onstage and I can remember wondering what the first SPLAT sound was when a big berry landed on the wood floor! #strawberries #audienceinvolvement #thingsgotmessy .
