Hunger Games on Stage: Fans react as Mockingjay appears on the roof of new purpose-built Canary Wharf theatre

The Mockingjay has officially risen in the capital - may the odds be in your favour, London.

Canary Wharf has had a Panem glow-up this week as the financial district's new Troubadour Theatre is finally taking shape as the home of the upcoming Hunger Games stage show.

The iconic Mockingjay symbol landed on top of the purpose-built, state-of-the-art venue this week, highlighting a new capitol destination in London.

Photos of the spot have since been shared online as Hunger Games fans have shared their excitement for the start of the show’s run in the city.

Others on Reddit don’t believe the new venue matches the vibe of Canary Wharf.

One user wrote: “It's utterly ruined the charming urban character of the area!” While another joked about how large the theatre sign is on the back of the venue.

The Hunger Games On Stage showcased the winged symbol of rebellion’s looming presence over Canary Wharf on social media, confirming the show's official opening date.

Alongside a video of it being airlifted, the caption revealed performances of the new Hunger Games: On Stage show would start on Monday (October 20).

It was confirmed that Canary Wharf had volunteered as tribute to host the new production this spring, with construction for the new Troubadour Theatre having started soon after.
