George Orwell's "1984"

The Actors' Gang's critically acclaimed production of George Orwell's 1984 returns to Los Angeles as part of an extensive international tour that has traveled to cities across the U.S. and to Hong Kong, Melbourne and Athens. Directed by Academy Award-winning actor and Actors' Gang artistic director Tim Robbins, 1984 tells of a world where people fear that their opinions cannot be expressed freely, where citizens are monitored at the government's discretion, where leaders are not held accountable for their deceptions, and where perpetual war is waged against an unseen enemy.

Adapted by Michael Gene Sullivan from the novel by George Orwell

Directed by Tim Robbins

I read the book then saw the movie with John Hurt, this play looks totally different, but interesting. Is there a definite script for the remake? or release date?

Please tell me Robbins' upcoming 1984 film remake isn't going to be like this.

I was lucky enough to see this in Davis. I think it is the best piece of live theatre I've ever seen. Thank you!
