About the event
Join Molly and Alice for a read-through of Ian Wooldridge's sharp dramatisation of George Orwell's Animal Farm. This session offers a chance to explore the script, get a feel for the characters, and learn more about our upcoming physical theatre production ahead of auditions.
About the Production This minimal-set performance will rely heavily on physical actor movement, tech, and characterization to bring Orwell's iconic allegory to life. Rather than animal ears or tails, costumes will feature human-style dress reflecting each character's role. A wide range of roles is available, including Napoleon, Snowball, Squealer, Boxer, Clover, Benjamin, and dual Narrators.
Key Dates
