The Aussie play that’s got London talking – Ruben Guthrie


“Ruben Guthrie is on fire. He’s 29, he’s the Creative Director of a cutting-edge advertising agency and he’s engaged to a Czech supermodel. He pours himself a drink to celebrate, a drink to work, a drink to sleep and one spectacular night he drinks so much he thinks he can fly…”

Ruben Guthrie is the new Australian comedy production from internationally celebrated actor and playwright Brendan Cowell. Presented by IronBark, a company presenting the best new Australian writers to UK audiences, Cowell “lines up the shots in a heady cocktail of fizzy humour and touching revelation”. In “a sparkling play about spiralling high, crashing hard and going to AA with your mum” London audiences are about to be stunned.

Ruben Guthrie is playing at the New Wimbledon Studio from 14 — 17 March and Scene Magazine has already commented that it’s “a play that smacks you in the face, throws up on your shoes, leads you around in circles all the while holding your hand and grinning at the joke”.

The cast includes Tom Campbell, Virge Gilchrist, Nick Hardcastle, Jemma Walker and directed by Nicola Samer.

The play is supported by Australian Business, Sunday In The Apartment & Australian Times and tickets are available via Atgtickets.com/wimbledon
