Description

'Being President of a footy club is pretty straightforward, right? Sign the best players, sell more beer, and try not to burn it all to the ground!' A loud, obnoxious and darkly humorous dive into the bravado, insecurity and ego of an Aussie Boy's mind, and the intoxicating lust for glory and power they find within the sacred walls of Marydale Tigers Football Club. In a world where it seems any idiot can be president, Dan, Stephen and Tim discover that they might just be the wrong idiots to put in charge.

Great writing and comedic delivery from all three performers, sporting an undeniable chemistry. Regardless of whether you’re an Aussie rules football fanatic or not, these guys will have you hooked into their absurd and hilarious reality, and is an original tale that’s well worth the watch!

This show is really fun and I highly recommend it!! The book, the direction, the comedic timing and the acting was all so well done and put together! The three, very funny aussies has such a dynamic chemistry and their transmitting energy is simply amazing! I laughed a lot and had such a great time
