About the Show

The Seeing Place presents a new adaptation of George Orwells novel, which tells the story of what happens when a group of farm animals drive out their master and take over.

From the show:

Commemorating the 75th Anniversary of the book being written.

The animals on a farm drive out their master and take over and run the farm for themselves. The experiment is successful, except that someone has to take the deposed farmer's place. Leadership devolves upon the pigs, which are cleverer than the rest of the animals. Unfortunately, their character is not equal to their intelligence. This dramatization remains faithful to the book's plot and intent and retains both its affection for the animals and the incisiveness of its message.

Ambitious, Clever, Great ensemble, Relevant, Intense

See it if you want to experience a great ensemble preforming original material they have developed based on the famous novel Animal Farm.

Don't see it if political dialog makes you sleepy. A great deal of action is built into the performance but the book consists of repeated similar speeches.
