Tim Robbins' stage production of 1984
http://www.theactorsgang.com/

the spiel:

Imagine a world where people fear that their opinion cannot be expressed freely, where leaders are not held accountable for their deceptions, where perpetual war is waged against an unseen enemy; a world where Ignorance is Strength, Freedom is Slavery, and War is Peace. This is the world George Orwell created more than half a century ago and its prescience of today’s world is stunning. Artistic Director Tim Robbins is directing his first production since the award winning Embedded, in this powerful new stage adaptation by San Francisco Mime Troupe’s Michael Gene Sullivan.

This production contains brief, partial nudity and strong language.

Presented by special arrangement with the estate of the late Sonia Brownell Orwell and A M Heath & Co Ltd
