Trophy Boys

★★★★★ – The Age
★★★★1/2
 – The Sydney Morning Herald

The boys are back in Sydney!

It’s the most anticipated night of the academic calendar, the Grand Finale of the Year 12 Interschool Debating Tournament and the all-boys team from the elite St Imperium College is primed to obliterate their sister school, until…

Performed by a female and non-binary cast in drag, the boys find themselves confined to a classroom for their one-hour debate preparation. The challenge?  To argue “feminism has failed women.”

Winner of Best New Australian Work, this hilariously witty satire takes a sharp look at the insecurities surrounding adolescent masculinity and entitlement. Back in Sydney by popular demand, Trophy Boys is one night of theatre you won’t want to miss.
