The award-winning Australian comedy FAG/STAG comes to the Sydney stage

This all-new production of the acclaimed two-hander by local writers Jeffrey Jay Fowler and Chris Isaacs brings an hour of wicked – sometimes raunchy – comedy to the fabulous and intimate El Rocco Theatre in Potts Point from 17 February. 

Fag/Stag follows the lives of two twenty-something guys – one gay, one straight – as they navigate their sex lives, friendship, and ongoing first-world problems. 

First performed in Sydney 3 years ago, the play toured to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival where it won great praise. Featuring Ryan Panizza – making his professional debut – and Samson Alston (The Credeaux Canvas, The Shape of Things), this odd couple of characters deliver a wild night of fun!

 “A truthful and comic insight into the mind of the modern man… laugh-out-loud funny, at other moments truly sad, we are left cheering. Highly recommended.” – Edinburgh Fringe
