George Orwell’s 1984
by Ryan Craig
Thursday–Saturday, November 20–22 at 7:30 pm
and Sunday, November 23 at 2:00 pm
This daring U.S. premiere brings Orwell’s classic to the stage like never before. Winston Smith dreams of rebellion in a world where Big Brother rules and truth is outlawed. His secret diary and forbidden love ignite dangerous defiance, but the Thought Police are always watching. Seventy-five years later, 1984 is as gripping and urgent as ever.
