The critically acclaimed production of 1984 will close at the West End's Playhouse Theatre on October 29. Directed by Robert Icke and Duncan Macmillan with Daniel Raggett, the play returned to the venue on June 14 this year.
Adapted by Icke and Macmillan, George Orwell’s canonical work is re-examined in a radical, award-winning adaptation exploring surveillance, identity and why Orwell’s vision of the future is as relevant now as ever. This dynamic, innovative production connects Orwell’s bleak vision of the future with the present day, drawing striking parallels to our own uncertain political landscape.
The cast includes Rudi Dharmalingam, Rosie Ede, Andrew Gower, Joshua Higgott, Hilton McRae, Anthony O’Donnell, Daniel Rabin and Catrin Stewart, alongside Eve Benioff Salama, Cleopatra Dickens, Amber Fernee and India Fowler.
