Fair Play

The Olympics. An action-packed play which is informative and fun both to watch and perform.  This play includes facts about the history of the Olympic Games from its roots in Ancient Greece to the introduction of the photofinish. We discover when women were first allowed to compete, hear about the man who cheated in the marathon by driving his car (yes, really) and learn the Olympic motto. We stage the opening and closing ceremonies and introduce you to some lesser known facts about the Paralympic Games too,  and there's even some sport!
