The premiere of the first-ever theatre adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ internationally acclaimed novel and Lionsgate’s blockbuster film, The Hunger Games: On Stage has arrived in London. Performed at the brand-new Troubadour Canary Wharf Theatre, this gripping production brings the dystopian world of Panem to life with thrilling stunts, powerful performances, and cutting-edge illusions.
Following the fearless heroine Katniss Everdeen, the story explores themes of courage, defiance, and the unbreakable human spirit.

The stage version preserves the powerful narrative while adding new dimensions through live action and stagecraft.
Multi award-winning playwright Conor McPherson, known for Girl from the North Country and The Weir, has adapted the script. Director Matthew Dunster, celebrated for his work on 2:22 – A Ghost Story and Hangmen, guides the production with innovative staging that incorporates extraordinary stunts and illusions to immerse the audience fully in Panem’s dangerous world.
