'O'Brien! They've got you too!'
'They got me a long time ago.'
Winston Smith is in prison, found guilty of Thoughtcrimes against Big Brother. As part of his reconstruction, he must re-enact key moments from his past life, with the help of other thought criminals, so that everyone can learn from his mistakes. Including his biggest mistake of all: falling in love with Julia.
George Orwell's classic dystopia 1984 is a still-resonant vision of the tolls of living under totalitarianism. Constructed almost entirely from dialogue taken from the original novel, this bold and powerful dramatisation restores the blazing heart of Orwell's work: a doomed love story, with the lovers at its centre.
This pre-eminently stageable version, adapted with an eye on economy by Nick Hern for a cast of five or more, is ideal for any school, youth group or amateur company looking to bring Orwell's chilling vision to life on stage.

Det är en svår bok att ta sig igenom. Viktig, speciellt så som samhället ser ut idag men oj så seg stundtals för att sen vända och bli jätteintressant och obehaglig. En bok alla bör läsa minst en gång trots allt.

Riktigt bra bok. Men det gick inte att lyssna på den. Uppläsningen låter som AI. En DÅLIG AI. Läser upp orden en i taget. Extremt svårt att lyssna på. Siri på iPhone pratar bättre💔
