ADC Presents - 1984 By George Orwell, Adapted by Nick Hern
Big Brother is watching. Are you listening?
In the church where George Orwell is buried, one of the most powerful novels of the twentieth century is reimagined as a haunting act of ritual, resistance and remembrance.
Oceania is a world ruled by fear. The Party watches everything. History is rewritten. Truth is whatever those in power decide it to be. Under the ever-present gaze of big brother, Winston Smith risks everything in a desperate search for freedom, love and human connection.
A story of rebellion, betrayal and the fight for the human soul, 1984 remains one of the most compelling warning ever written.
Set within the sacred architecture of All Saints Church in Sutton Courtenay and created specially for this unique setting, this bold new production explores the unsettling relationship between faith, authority and control. Told through immersive sound, choral voices, electronic music and striking visual imagery.
