Presented as part of the 2024 Sydney Fringe Festival, Dramafreak Productions will hit the stage with Definitely Not A Hungry Game: A Parody Musical at the Off Broadway Hub – Turner Theatre from 3 September.
Co-created by Freya Moore and Robbie Alexander, Definitely Not A Hungry Game is the love child of a Starkid fan, an HG lover and two twenty-somethings who are chronically online.
Showcasing 18 original songs within two hours of absurdity, hilarity and drama, the parody musical is based on the series of a similar (but – for legal reasons – not the same) name.
Katniss is the main character, Peeta is irrelevant. Gale is a bogan. Prim is poorly named. Her mum is an alcoholic. And Rue is just in a silly goofy mood!
Will they sing about their feelings? You bet your ass they will! Will Katniss make it through the games – you’ll have to come and watch to find out!
