Interview with the cast of Graeme of Thrones which is on at the Fringe Festival

Rach, Jacq and Dene spend time with John-Luke and Nic from the cast of Graeme of Thrones which was on at the Melbourne Fringe Festival.

Make sure you see it before the inevitable lawsuit is their slogan and it’s a “critically acclaimed theatrical journey through the Seven Kingdoms, avid ‘Thrones’ fan Graeme just wants to recreate his favourite fantasy saga on stage.

He doesn’t quite have the same budget as the TV show, or as many cast members, or the performance skills required, but he’s sure George RR Martin would approve – and that’s what matters.

But when news reaches him that an influential theatrical producer is in the building, Graeme decides that this could be his big break – as long as nothing goes wrong… Having started life in London’s West End, the show has since been seen around the world with productions in Australia, Canada and the USA.

In 2017 the production takes on a world tour giving Westeros fans everywhere the chance to see why Time Out described it as ‘a must for any Game Of Thrones fan’ and why it was banned from performing in Malaysia. Created by a team of some of the UK’s top comedy writers, Graeme Of Thrones is an original and un-authorized parody on the international phenomenon that is Game Of Thrones. A treat for fans and an introduction for the unenlightened.”
