Juicy Fruits[1] is a one-act comedy by Leo Butler that was produced by touring theatre company Paines Plough[2] in 2011.

The main part of the play takes place in a coffeeshop where two old University friends, Nina and Lorna, are reunited after many years.

[5][6] Joyce McMillan of The Scotsman[5] described Juicy Fruits as an exploration of "the ambivalent experience of motherhood", ending with "an almost surreal meditation on the relationship between western humanity and the planet we have ravaged".

Mark Fisher of The Guardian[3] called it "fine as a silly study of eccentricity, but unconvincing when it offers a psychological explanation for Nina's behaviour".

Butler’s script is superb, flashing from brilliant humour, to heart wrenching emotional breakdown", with the character of Nina delivering some "truly stunning (and shocking) lines of dialogue".
