Location: Studio Theatre, AUB Campus
The animals at Manor Farm have had enough. Enough of being exploited. Enough of being abused. Enough of being treated... well... like animals.
In an act of glorious rebellion they oust their human farmer and decide to run the farm themselves, to create a place where all animals are equal.
But what happens when some animals become “more equal” than others...?
80 years since George Orwell’s revolutionary political fable was first published, this thrilling and powerful new adaptation by Tatty Hennessy shows how shockingly and terrifyingly relevant this story still is. How freedom can still come at a price. How a society can still sleepwalk into oppression.
How power can still corrupt even the meekest of creatures.
