CODGERS

Codgers

20 APR-1 MAY

By Don Reid. Presented by Steady Lads and Christine Dunstan Productions

Eavesdrop on six senior Aussie men, some of them mates since war service, as they sweat it out together each week in a gym and are taken on inter-connected journeys that are challenging, touching and very funny.

When secrets, differences and loss of trust threaten to destroy the long established friendships, they learn that ‘difference’ is more a matter of point of view; that 'you wouldn’t be dead for quids’ and, no matter what, that you gotta laugh!

"This play has heart… the wit and warmth of the script, the ability of the characters to laugh at themselves" Daily Telegraph

"...a heart-warming comedy...you're in the hands of skilled experts who really do know what they're doing, how to do it and why." Sydney Morning Herald

“A thoroughly entertaining, moving and eloquent experience. A memory that you will carry with you for the rest of your life.” Kevin Jackson’s Theatre Reviews

“Wait till I tell The Wife that someone’s found my voice – it’s an absolute ripper!” Ted Rumble, bona fide codger
