About 1984
Production Details
Theatre Arts spring mainstage production of 1984 will be directed by Dr James F. Schlatter, running March 22-24, 2018.
A small company of actors engages George Orwell’s terrifying and terrifyingly contemporary vision of a world of mindless conformity, inescapable surveillance, and absolute allegiance to state power. Only one man, who lives almost entirely inside his own skull, and one young woman, who fiercely if clandestinely also claims her “ownlife”, stand together against totalitarian obliteration. Do they stand a chance? Do two plus two make four? Come and find out.
