MEDIA RELEASE

VIBRANT NEW THEATRE COMPANY DEBUT WITH DARK SEXY ROMCOM.

A group of hot young actors are set to launch their new theatre company with the Australian premiere of a dark and sexy play about twenty-something men behaving badly.

THE THINGS GOOD MEN DO , by award winning young british playright Dan Muirden, premieres at Sydney's Tap Gallery this April with a fresh, young cast and production team.

The play and locally trained team behind it(new production company Come Again Jnr) offers a unique interpretation of relationships and the moral dilemmas that every person faces.

Nick is a reformed womaniser who is fast approaching thirty and has fallen head-over-heels for the girl he wants to marry and have kids with. But then a dark little fling he’d rather forget comes back to threaten everything. For the first time he understands that a picture-perfect, middle-class life might not be a given. How far will he go to keep himself in the game everyone else seems to be playing?

The play features an all star cast of bright, talented and resourceful young actors that includes Chad Richards as Nick. Anna James as lucy. Chris Leaney as Joe, Jeremy Just as Rich and the Counsellor and Stephanie pick as Adriana.

Dan Muirden's debut full length play is a dark comedy set in present day, twenty something, professional London. He is the writer of invisible storms and his one act piece Lovely Couple was short listed for the Westminster Prize at Soho Theatre and he currently writes for BBC Television and Radio.

THE THINGS GOOD MEN DO plays at the TAP Gallery in Darlinghurst from the 27th of April to the 8th of May and is directed by Nicole Selby, currently Assistant Director at the Ensemble Theatre with design by Elliot Glass.

ABOUT THE PRODUCERS

Anna, Chad and Jeremy met through acting and were frustrated by the lack of theatre opportunities for young actors in Sydney.

Instead of sitting around and waiting for work to come to them, they decided to create their own and so began the process of producing The Good Things Men Do.
