A Couple Decides What To Have For Dinner
 

The perfect Melbourne Comedy Festival theatre experience.

When Harry Met Sally meets Waiting For Godot.

From the makers of Mystery Radio Theatre comes a comedy for anyone who has ever been in a relationship. Or who has avoided relationships because of crap like this.

A married couple sit on a couch and try to decide what to have for dinner. For 50 ridiculous, stupid, hilarious minutes. Which is shorter than in real life, but that’s all the time we have.

And all from within the walls of The Butterfly Club - a speakeasy-like venue with an entrance at the end of one of Melbourne's classic alleyways.

"... a must-see for theatre lovers and comedy enthusiasts alike. So, grab a cocktail, settle in, and prepare for an evening of laughter" - What's The Show

“…an oh so silly, but at the same time clever and satisfying ride into the absurd… In fact it would be a crime not to see this outrageous, witty… offering” - Alex First, Subculture Media

    Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.
  • Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
  • The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
