State Theatre Company South Australia presents a Soft Tread Production in association with the Maybe Pile and Trinity College Gawler

Boys being boys.

It is the biggest night of Melbourne’s academic calendar, the Grand Finale of the Year 12 Interschool Debating Tournament, and the all-boys team from the elite St Imperium College are ready to totally annihilate their sister school — until…

Performed by a female and non-binary cast in drag, the show unfolds in real time as the boys are locked in a classroom for their one-hour prep window and forced to argue that “feminism has failed women”.

This riotously funny satire looks at insecure adolescent masculinity, entitlement and the ego of Australia’s next generation of politicians and powerbrokers.

Winner of Best New Work (Sydney Theatre Awards 2024) and recipient of multiple Greenroom Awards Nominations (2024): Best Production, Best New Writing, Best Director (Marni Mount), Trophy Boys is “truly a joy to watch” (Time Out).

Off the back of a sold out national tour, Trophy Boys performs in regional South Australia before arriving at the Space Theatre.
