Hunger Games on stage 'dazzles' but some critics say it 'lacks emotion'
The Hunger Games: On Stage brings Panem to life in London's Canary Wharf with dazzling visuals and aerial sequences, but some critics find it lacking emotional depth. While praised for ambitious stunts and technical wizardry, reviews point out a lack of emotional impact in the adaptation of Suzanne Collins' dystopian novels. The show, featuring Mia Carragher as Katniss Everdeen, aims to impress fans of the franchise despite some reservations about the storytelling's emotional resonance.
