Chookas

Tommy James Green, an actor, director, writer, and comedian based out of Sydney NSW. He is an award-winning, record-holding playwright and producer. His short play Scratch took out Best Script, Best Director, and Best Overall Production, amongst others awards, at Short+Sweet Play Festival in 2015. He graduated with a High Distinction from the Australian Film Television and Radio School in 2018, where he participated in an Advanced Diploma in Television Writing. He has also produced sell-out theatre shows, for the Sydney Fringe Festival in 2014, and independently at 107 in 2018 with Johnny Cobra; a comedy company he directs and produces. He is about to open up his biggest show 'Christ Almighty' at the Sydney Fringe Festival this year. Tommy came on the show to speak us particularly about the show but more then that to speak to us about his thoughts on how this production may change the way theatre has been seen in the past 5 to 10 years. Tommy wants to entertain folks in the audience and bring them away from their world they are living at the moment to recharge for a few hours. We love this man and we hope to get more of him in the future. Wish him the best for the Fringe and the rest of his journey. Thanks Tommy. CHOOKAS!!!
