Boys being boys.
St Imperium College’s all-boys team think they’ve got the Grand Finale of the Year 12 Interschool Debating Tournament in the bag. It’s the most important night of the academic year and the private school lads believe they’re about to intellectually own their sister school. The topic up for debate: “feminism has failed women.”
But as the boys are locked in a class for their one-hour prep time, inflated egos, hormones and nascent masculinity create a pressure cooker environment, leading to a chaotic turn of events.
Played by a female and non-binary cast in drag, this uproarious satire exposes the insecurity, privilege, entitlement and misogyny that runs rife in Australia’s private boys schools. With graduates over-represented amongst the nation’s powerbrokers and politicians, the award-winning Trophy Boys makes the case for an urgent change to the way in which the Australian education system is serving its young men, women and non-binary students.
The US premiere production of Trophy Boys, was directed by Tony Award winner Danya Taymor and opened in June 2025 at the off-Broadway MCC Theatre in New York, where it enjoyed a twice-extended run.
