It asks the audience to question their own relationship to truth, indoctrination, sex, community, and torture. War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength, Tragedy is Comedy. Fridays and Saturdays July 28th-August 5th, the cast performs 1984. They will perform 2 shows on Friday, July 28th; Saturday, July 29th; and Friday, August 4th at 7:30 and 9:30pm, with the closing performance on Saturday August 5th at 7:30pm.
