The Games

T1605843232
Three athletes with aspirations of greatness are poised to compete at the largest sporting event in the ancient world, 'The Games'. Under-funded, under-prepared and completely out of their depth, they take on the heroes of ancient Greece. This is their story... Inspired by stories of the ancient Olympics Spike Theatre bring back to life a world of Greek Gods and bizarre sporting events in their own inimitable style. This comic re-telling of all things Greek will incorporate sporting equipment with a thousand uses, an original musical score and scenes of simulated nudity!
