Aussie Louise Birgan is a former international fashion model that worked professionally during the 80s & 90s and was represented by Power (London), City (Paris) and Marilyn Gauthier (Paris). She went on to become a successful actor and director in her native Australia- Hugh Jackman starred in one of her movies!

"Louise Birgan is an actress, known for The Year My Voice Broke (1987), Strange Planet (1999) and Erskineville Kings (1999)."
-Excerpt from IMDB


"September is the season for theatre productions and The J has a raw, cutting edge play about the complexities of relationships. Former catwalk model turned actor and director Louise Birgan chose Fourplay for its hard hitting subject matter, something she said she felt familiar with. “Fourplay was written by a young Melbourne writer, she’s English and she was writing plays at the same time I was. “She was in Melbourne and I was in Sydney and we both released these raw relationship plays. “I wanted to direct something but I didn’t want to put my own work on because I’m bringing up two kids under three at the moment so I had too much work to manage, so I decided to do something of hers.

“It was familiar territory for me. The writing wasn’t familiar but the subject matter and the way she wrote was quite similar to my own,” Louise explained. “The play is about a deteriorating relationship bet-ween a couple who go and seek solace in other relationships. “Not in love relationships so to speak, but they go off to search for the true meaning of a relationship with other people. “The man goes off with another woman and the woman goes off with another man and basically on stage it unravels what they are actually looking for in life and the meaning of the relationship.” And while the plot sounds uncannily similar to the film Closer starring Jude Law, Natalie Portman and Julia Roberts, Louise said Fourplay was rawer. “It is very similar, except this is a lot rawer. When I say rawer, it’s not commercialised for the masses so it’s quite hard-hitting – there’s a bit of swearing and a raw subject matter and it’s quite stylised.” Louise also said Fourplay was different to a lot of other theatre featured on the Coast in that it is neither a comedy nor a musical. Curious? See what all the fuss is about with Fourplay and head to The J this Thursday and Friday night."
