ANIMAL FARM
BY GEORGE ORWELL

Education at Glasshouse 2021
TERM 2

SNEAK PEEK
Animal Farm, one of the most enduring political
commentaries returns in a multi-award winning, criticallyacclaimed
theatre production. George Orwell’s intensely
powerful fairy tale allegorizes and satirizes communist
governments while illustrating with stunning simplicity
how greed and power corrupts with devastating
consequences to all who yield.
Revolution has taken place at Manor Farm. The pigs have
assumed control and all the animals, fueled by enthusiastic
camaraderie and guided by a set of self-imposed rules, are
promised a better life free from the self-serving greed of
humans. However, it is not long until the rules that promised
equality and freedom become the shackles that bind the
animals once again.
Bring your students and introduce them to one of the most
controversial and studied political commentaries around live
on the Glasshouse stage.
