Adapted by Conor McPherson and directed by Matthew Dunster, The Hunger Games is a dystopian story set in a future where the government forces children to fight to the death in a televised event as a punishment for a past rebellion. We follow Katniss Everdeen, who volunteers to take her sister's place in the deadly games and becomes a symbol of resistance and inspires hope for change. It's a hugely powerful story that comes to life at the Troubadour Canary Wharf, a brand-new auditorium which brings the audience into the thick of the action!
