19 June (Trades Hall)

Literary Death Match returns to Melbourne for what will be forever known as "The Greatest Literary Night of 2024." To make it so, we'll be delivering Melbourne's third-ever event at Fringe Common Rooms at Trades Hall THEN following it up with a dance party with music from DJ William Shakespeare (just kidding, DJ is still TBA). 

What is Literary Death Match? Part literary event, part comedy show, part game show, Literary Death Match brings together four of today’s finest writers to compete in an edge-of-your-seat read-off critiqued by three celebrity judges, and concluded by a slapstick showdown to decide the ultimate champion.

JUDGES & READERS: TBA

Hosted by LDM creator Adrian Todd Zuniga (author of the award-nominated novel Collision Theory)

Produced by Kate Cameron producer/theatre-maker/photographer
