National University Theatre Society presents

22 May 2013 to 25 May 2013

Ruben Guthrie is on fire. 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 a brutally honest comedy about confronting and accepting change, spiralling high, crashing hard and the role of alcohol in Australian society.
