Yes – the writer had to clear the script with his spouse before showing anyone else.“
I knew that when my wife came along she would immediately recognise the exact conversations we had had before. And other people have told me the same thing.
In fact, the moment anyone just hears the title of the show, they immediately understand the universal themes of the play and start telling me their own horror stories of trying to make those small, daily decisions together while in a relationship.” – James Hazelden (writer, director)
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. This is a perfect date for new couples, old couples and smug groups of single people.
From the makers of Mystery Radio Theatre, and performed inside Melbourne’s coolest speakeasy, TheButterfly Club, comes the most relatable comedy ever written and performed, starring Amanda Buckley and Chris Saxton.
Reviewer? Busy Comedy Festival punter? Our opening night is one day before the Melbourne International Comedy Festival officially opens. What better time to come along?
