Drinking Games

Back in school they enjoyed vodka tonics for lunch at Gary’s mum’s place until Steve threw up in a beaker at science class. These days, stretching the tenuous ties of the decades, Gary, Steve, Dave and Tim meet once a month to play tennis which serves as a foreplay to drinking. But the things that brought the men together now seem less potent than what is driving them apart.

Damien Wilkins is a winner of the New Zealand Book Award for Fiction and a writer for television’s The Insiders Guide to Happiness. His first play is chock full of wit and insight into men in their thirties behaving badly.

A New Zealand Premiere.
