7th Floor Theatre has partnered with PIP Theatre to present the Queensland premiere of Angus Cameron’s Australian Open. This sharp and fast-paced exploration of wits and open relationships takes centre court at PIP Theatre, Milton, for a limited season in January 2025. Australian Open is a hilarious ensemble piece, using evocative, witty dialogue to challenge societal norms whilst championing queer culture. It’s Felix’s 31st birthday, but all his parents want to talk about over dinner 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 stars Matilda Award winner Sandro Colarelli (Elvis, Love Lust Lost), Lisa Hickey (Children of the Black Skirt, Grand Horizons), Whitney Duff (Neighbours, Dark Vanilla Jungle), Tye Shepherd (Mariah Carey’s Butterfly Tour, The Mikado) and Jackson Paul (Underground Theatre Company’s Rotterdam). Running from 8–18 January, don’t miss this quirky, contemporary comedy of manners that serves up plenty of laughs and surprises. |
