A smart sleek and epically glorious romp – Australian Arts Review
Australian Open is a fast-paced comedy about tennis and open relationships.
It’s Felix’s 31st Birthday, but all his parents want to talk about over dinner is his boyfriend Lucas’ loss to Rodger Federer in the American Open the night before. That is until Felix mentions that he and Lucas plan to continue their open relationship even if they decide to get married – a backhand smash that kicks off a debauched game of doubles.
