George Orwell's 1984

GENRE: Dystopian literature

George Orwell’s 1984 is one of the most engrossing, disturbing, and provocative novels ever written. Its anti-hero, Winston Smith, toils in the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history to suit the Party’s version of reality. But beneath his obedient exterior lies a growing rebellion – a desperate yearning for truth, love, and freedom in a society where independent thought is a crime and surveillance is absolute. As Winston dares to question the regime of Big Brother, he is drawn into a terrifying cat-and-mouse game where nothing is safe – not even his own mind.

This new adaptation will bring Orwell’s vision to life in a fast-paced and imaginative re-telling, offering multiple opportunities for performers and designers to create an innovative production of this unnerving classic. A chillingly relevant struggle that still resonates in today’s world.
