GAME. SET. MATCH.
by Megan Wilding
Presented by Malthouse Theatre
Beckett Theatre, The Malthouse
1 - 23 May 2026
Ray meets Joshua after the funeral of his mother, an Australian tennis legend. The pair hit it off, with banter that flies back and forth like a rally at Wimbledon.
Over one boozy night during the Australian Open, we witness a classic match of will-they-or-wonβt they? But youβll never guess how this game ends.
Secrets are uncovered and stains scrubbed off as we figure out who is the player and who is being played. Will a match this charged end in love⦠or a sudden-death finale?
