About This Show

Winston Smith hates his job. He works in the ministry of information, rewriting history to serve the interests of the powerful. Winston’s heart is stirring with rebellion and his heart alive with love. Welcome to a world of no privacy, where electronic screens create paranoia, divisiveness, and hatred for the “other.” Here, the state manufactures consent for perpetual war, truth is manipulated, and love itself is an act of rebellion.

Directed by Tim Robbins and adapted by Michael Gene Sullivan, this acclaimed, wildly successful production of George Orwell’s classic returns to the Actors’ Gang Theater after touring throughout the world!

“GO! The action never slows!” — LA Weekly

“Has the concentrated but still devastating energy of a hand grenade” — Los Angeles Times
