THE HUNGER GAMES: ON STAGE Director Reveals Ideas for New York Production

Based on the original Hunger Games story, The Hunger Games: On Stage is now playing in the UK. This gripping tale of courage, defiance and unbreakable human spirit, follows the fearless heroine Katniss Everdeen on her journey of self-discovery, as she emerges as a beacon of rebellion and hope.

Multi award-winning playwright Conor McPherson (Girl from the North Country, The Weir) and Director Matthew Dunster (2:22 – A Ghost Story, Hangmen, The Pillowman) bring this story to life on stage, using stunts and illusions in an epic theatrical experience.

In a recent interview, Dunster revealed his thoughts on a US production of The Hunger Games: On Stage.

He shared, "I would like to be part of, certainly at the beginning, adapting it for a more conventional place if we needed to do that in any territory,” Adding, “If we did go to America, it would seem a shame not to build something really f-ing cool in Brooklyn.”

The Hunger Games: On Stage is currently booking until 25 October 2026. See what the critics are saying about the production HERE!
