Australian Premiere

1936, Berlin. When Jewish athlete Helene Mayer is selected for the Nazis' Olympic Squad, she realises she is fighting for much more than gold. Based on a true story, 'Games' is a cautionary tale for our times. A multi-award-winning, sell-out success, the show received an astonishing 14 five and four star reviews in Edinburgh. Brought to you by the team which has won over 30 of the world's leading Fringe titles -- including Overall Best Theatre in 2016, and the Overall Adelaide Critics' Circle Awards in 2017 & 2018. Written by three-time Fringe First-winner Henry Naylor.
