Yippee Ki Yay (the parody celebration of Die Hard)

Theatre and Physical Theatre • Comedy
United Kingdom • Australian Premiere

Acclaimed, joyfully funny retelling of classic film Die Hard by Edinburgh Fringe First winner Richard Marsh. When gunmen seize an LA skyscraper, off-duty policeman John McClane is the hostages’ only hope. This uplifting action romp pays affectionate homage to the iconic 80s fan favourite. Essential viewing for Hans Gruber superfans and newcomers alike, the show comes to Adelaide following sell-out UK and US tours.
