1984 at Fort Wayne Civic Theatre

Based on the iconic novel by George Orwell, 1984 brings us the story of Winston Smith, a cog in the giant machine state of Oceania. Physically and mentally under the omnipresent eye of Big Brother, Winston has been caught struggling for scraps of love and freedom in a world awash with distrust and violence. With the brutal "help" of four Party Members, Winston is forced to confess his Thoughtcrimes before an unseen inquisitor, and the audience -- which acts as a silent witness to his torture. A ferocious and provocative adaptation of one of the most prescient works of literature of the last century.

Adapted by Robert Owens, Wilton E. Hall Jr. and William A. Miles from the Novel by George Orwell

1984 is produced by special arrangement with The Dramatic Publishing Company of Woodstock, Illinois.
