1984
Winston faithfully rewrites history for the Ministry of Truth, fearful that any day his hidden resentment will be revealed. He embarks down a road of quiet disobedience, discovering kindred spirits along the way, knowing that the only way to live is to accept that he is already dead.
Delve into Winston’s mind as he navigates the complexities of a dystopian Britain, where the government decides what is real and Big Brother is always watching.
George Orwell’s 1984, adapted by Matthew Dunster, is a faithful and enthralling adaptation that brings the heart of the challenges and warnings raised by the original work to life.
This amateur production of 1984 is presented by arrangement with Knight Hall Agency Ltd.
