Australian Open by Angus Cameron

Coinciding with the tennis season, this sharp and fast-paced exploration of wits and relationships takes centre court at PIP Theatre in Milton. It’s Felix’s 31st birthday, but all his parents want to talk about is his boyfriend Lucas’ loss to Rodger Federer. That is until Felix mentions that he and Lucas plan to continue their open relationship even if they decide to get married – a backhand smash that kicks off a debauched game of doubles. Australian Open is the seventh production that has evolved from the highly successful Pot Luck Plays, a unique, moved weekly play reading experience where actors and audience discover the play at the same time. 7th Floor Theatre has been bringing together local actors, playwrights and audiences in a supportive setting since 2019. Australian Open stars Matilda Award winner Sandro Colarelli (Elvis), Lisa Hickey (Children of the Black Skirt), Whitney Duff (Neighbours), Tye Shepherd (Mariah Carey’s Butterfly Tour) and Jackson Paul (Rotterdam). Don’t miss this quirky, contemporary comedy of manners that serves up plenty of laughs and surprises!
