Not sure about PE class? Don’t worry, SD Theatre has reimagined it with a twist that’ll have you laughing, leaping, and joining in without a second thought!

Armed with cones, hula hoops, and their trusty megaphone, they’re ready to lead the silliest sports session you’ve ever seen. Dressed head to toe in retro PE kits and determined to get you moving, these teachers don’t care if you forgot your trainers—and no, they’re not accepting notes from your parents!
Expect a chaotic warm-up followed by delightfully daft events like:
  • Chopstick Javelin
  • Sock Shotput
  • 30-yard Scream
  • Paper Aeroplane Launch
  • Hula-Poola Hula-hoops
  • Wonky Obstacle Course
Parental supervision required. Laughter guaranteed.
