1984 by George Orwell
Step into a world where truth is twisted, love is rebellion, and freedom comes at the ultimate price. Winston Smith, a quiet editor at the Ministry of Truth, dares to defy The Party by committing the unthinkable act of independent thought. His small spark of resistance soon collides with the terrifying force of Big Brother and the sinister mysteries hidden within Room 101.
Visceral, haunting, and disturbingly relevant, 1984 is a gripping theatrical experience that explores the fragility of truth, the perils of absolute power, and the enduring resilience of the human spirit. This chilling reimagining from the multi-award-winning team at Shake & Stir (Frankenstein, Jane Eyre, Animal Farm, Dracula) brings Orwell’s masterpiece to life with electrifying intensity.
