Lost in Translation

Comedy • Theatre
South Australia

Your favourite movies translated badly.

Each night, we take a different classic film script, run it through an online translator a dozen times, and then read the results live on stage in character!

The final twist is that the guest stars read the scripts on stage for the first time.

To get the most enjoyment, we recommend you watch the film beforehand.
