Brendan Cowell’s contemporary attack on our national delight in drinking
Ruben Guthrie is on fire. He’s 29, he’s the Creative Director of a cutting-edge advertising agency, he’s engaged to a Czech supermodel and Sydney is his oyster. He pours himself a drink to celebrate, a drink to work, a drink to sleep and one night he drinks so much he thinks he can fly.
Ruben Guthrie is Brendan Cowell’s brutally honest comedy about work, excess and the dark side of success. This is a play which taps a deep vein of Australian life and asks, is it un-Australian to say no to a drink?
Senior Drama and English students will relish this challenge to our national preoccupation with the value of winning at all costs, and with alcohol as a solution to dissolve all our sorrows. Deeply moral and unstintingly funny, in Ruben Guthrie Brendan Cowell shows us ourselves and asks us if we enjoy what we see.
Senior students will benefit from taking a good, hard look at the enticing world on offer in this hilarious and moving act of revelation about spiralling high, crashing hard and being taken to AA by your mum.

Handsomely scaled-up after its successful debut last year, Brendan Cowell's Ruben Guthrie earns a spot on the top shelf of contemporary Australian comedies.
Sydney Morning Herald
The new production sparkles with energy derived from Schmitz's obvious delight in the title character's smartass repartee and a cast that responds with gusto to the assured direction of a well-honed script.
Variety
With lots of punchy one liners, as well as moments of great warmth and humanity, this play is a must see from one of Sydney’s most talented sons.
