Following its recent successes with MARY BRYANT and FLORA THE RED MENACE, MAGNORMOS presents the Australasian premiere of Off-Broadway sensation THE THING ABOUT MEN (Joe Di Pietro, Jimmy Roberts).

Tom, a creative director at a top advertising firm is cheating on his wife Lucy (with several women). Lucy is cheating on her husband Tom (with artist Sebastian). Tom moves out on Lucy and, in disguise, moves in with Sebastian... and he will stop at nothing to win back his wifes affections... nothing...

An often-moving, but always light hearted musical comedy, THE THING ABOUT MEN is the eagerly anticipated follow-up work from the writers of the mega-success I LOVE YOU, YOU'RE PERFECT, NOW CHANGE and will be directed by Aaron Joyner (Mary Bryant, Flora the Red Menace, The Beauty Spot) with Movement Direction by Jessica Enes (Mary Bryant, The Beauty Spot, Archy & Mehitabel).

"Magnormos is unique.... Joyner's production runs like clockwork.
He deftly composes the stage."
Cameron Woodhead, The Age (Mary Bryant)

"... I haven't had so good a time at a musical this year"
Owen Richardson, The Sunday Age Age (A Bunch of Ratbags)
