What the show is like The Hunger Games: On Stage is a play, not a musical. The stage version covers the story of the first book only: the reaping, the training in the Capitol and the fight to survive in the arena. Fans of the books and films will know the key moments, and people new to the story still get the full plot from start to finish. The show runs about 2 hours 30 minutes, including an interval. Troubadour Canary Wharf Theatre was built for this production. The audience sits around the stage on all sides, so the arena is in the middle of the room and the action moves all around you. Video design, lighting and stage effects bring the Capitol and the arena to life, while the actors carry the human story of Katniss, Peeta, Gale, Haymitch and Effie. Age guidance and content warnings The show is recommended for ages 12 and over. Children under 3 are not admitted, and anyone under 16 must be with an adult aged 18 or over. The production has loud noises and explosions, haze and smoke, flashing lights and strobe effects, scenes of killing, and themes of death, grief and guilt. Parents should decide what suits their children. Seats, venue and booking tips Because the audience surrounds the stage, most seats have a clear view of the arena. Seats in the middle blocks, not too close and not too far, usually give a good view of both the actors' faces and the full stage picture. Check the live seat map when you book. The theatre is at 11 Water Street on the Canary Wharf Estate, London E14 5GX, a short walk from Canary Wharf station on the Jubilee and Elizabeth lines. The DLR also serves the area. Allow time for the security check and for finding your entrance. The venue has step-free access, wheelchair seating, accessible toilets and hearing assistance, plus bars, a cloakroom and merchandise stands. Weekend and holiday performances often sell out first, so book early if your London dates are fixed. Show your e-ticket on your phone together with a valid photo ID at the door. Tickets cannot be cancelled or changed after booking. More London theatre nights Many visitors pair The Hunger Games with a classic West End musical on another night. Browse all London tickets for other shows that week, or book Wicked tickets if you want songs and dancing too. Canary Wharf is about 25 to 30 minutes from the West End by Tube, so plan your travel if you book two shows on the same day. Ready for the arena?
