Irish playwright to write stage adaptation of The Hunger Games for the West End

 Dubliner Conor McPherson will adapt Katniss’s story for stage.

The Hunger Games is a series of young adult dystopian novels written by Suzanne Collins.

It’s the bestselling novel that broke box-office records, but now Suzanne Collin’s novel The Hunger Games has been adapted for the West End by an Irish playwright.

Five-time Tony nominee and Olivier Award winner Conor McPherson, from Dublin, will adapt the first installation of the science fiction series which will make its stage debut in London next autumn.
