The Young Tycoons

Darlinghurst Theatre Company, and Spooky Duck Productions are very excited to kick-start 2006 with a return season of 2005's smash-hit, The Young Tycoons. If you missed it the first time around, or want to have a second helping, here's your chance. Christopher Johnson's scathing comedy rips through the bedrooms and boardrooms of Sydney's rich and powerful, taking no prisoners. If you've ever yearned for the lifestyle of Sydney's elite, the rampant backstabbing, treachery and despicable behaviour on show in The Young Tycoons may just have you thinking twice about what you wish for!

Greed is the new Black.

"Totally entertaining, clever and engaging... this marvellous satire is bound to be a sell-out." Sally Salmond, The Program

Two-time AFI Award Winner Peter Kowitz leads a brilliant cast including Michael Cullen, Nicholas Hammond, Christopher Johnson, Octavia Barron Martin, Ashlie Pellow, David Ritchie, Mike Smith, and Zoe Tuckwell-Smith in a satire that is epic in scope, brutal in nature, very, very funny – and sooooo Sydney.
