1984 by George Orwell

"1984" is a profoundly unsettling tale of two lovers navigating an oppressive totalitarian regime ruled by the ever-watchful Big Brother. This story delves into the struggle for individual and intellectual freedoms, where the fight against an all-encompassing system leads to a fate more harrowing than death: the total erasure of individual willpower.

Presented in a modernized format for the stage by H.S. Fernandez, this adaptation of "1984" retains the essence of the original storyline while seamlessly incorporating contemporary elements and current events. This innovative blend invites audiences to reflect on the parallels between the original narrative and today’s societal challenges.

Director H.S. Fernandez and his talented creative team have incorporated the story into an interlaced framework that brilliantly combines Grotowski's Poor Theatre, classical Greek theatre as well as modernist Brechtian elements. Combined with layered symbolism and the fractured narrative of a broken mind, this performance promises to be a rich and profoundly moving experience for theatre lovers.
