Animal Farm
“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”
Adapted by Ian Wooldridge from the book by George Orwell. Orwell’s satire on the perils of Stalinism has proved magnificently long-lived as a parable about totalitarianism. The animals on a farm drive out their master and take over and run the farm for themselves.
The animals are existing in a gritty, severe world created by lighting. The barn has its own ominous presence, propelled by fierce back light pushing through the boards.Director Darcy Rice guides this production to the ominous, grotesque world that it became. The goal was for every idea to be the gestural manifestation of that idea, exaggerated until it was uncomfortable.
