ABOUT THE SHOW
Equal parts toe-tapping and soul-crushing, “1984! The Musical!” turns Orwell’s dystopia into a light-hearted romantic comedy—a lavish spectacle complete with torture, totalitarianism, and the most romantic love of all: state-mandated!
Lose yourself in this piece of escapist pageantry. Forget about the world and lose yourself as you as you enter 1984—a bizarre post-truth society where the government conducts a perpetual war, manipulates language, and EVEN operates a surveillance state. This work of pure imagination truly is unlike anything you’ve ever known.
Meet Winston Smith. Dutiful worker. Reluctant rebel. Accidental leading man. His life is grey, watched, meticulously controlled. Then he meets Julia. Bold. Defiant. Dangerously charming. She likes freedom. He likes not getting caught. Sparks fly anyway.
