THE Sum of Us by David Stevens, directed by Anthony Brown, will grace the stage at The Ruby Theatre this October. This heart-warming and bittersweet comedy offers performances on the 18th, 19th, 25th, and 26th at 7 pm, with matinee shows on the 20th and 27th at 3 pm.

Written by Australian playwright and Academy Award nominee David Stevens, The Sum of Us is a bitter-sweet comedy about the search for companionship and belonging. It explores the loving relationship between a widower, Harry, and his gay son, Jeff, as they embark on their individual searches to find the right partner.

This touching play illuminates the eternal human need to transcend our separateness and embark upon the difficult but necessary road to an accepting and loving connection with others. Perfectly balancing humour and sadness, it’s described as ‘a meditation on the enduring strength of love in the face of adversity’.
