Destroy Yourself

4 W, 1 M, plus an optional ensemble of all genders
90 minutes

Set in the lead up to the 2004 Summer Olympics, Destroy Yourself follows four elite teen gymnasts on the competitive path to Olympic glory. But when pressure mounts and reality crashes their world, the conspiracy to kill takes root and doesn’t let go. Loosely inspired by ancient Greek storytelling and the early 2000s soundtrack of brutal youth, this dark comedy turned body horror is a wild and relentless ride.
