Animal Farm
by McCallum Fine Arts Academy
May. 11 - May. 14, 2017
Thursday-Sunday
Quite timely, this revolutionary masterpiece comes to the stage again with MacTheatre’s world premiere re-imagining of Animal Farm.
After revolting against the reign of their negligent human master, the animals of Mr. Jones’s farm create their own ideal society in which all animals are equal and rules are set by democratic vote. It's all working well until the allure of power leads the animals to a chilling fate. Animal Farm illustrates how new tyranny replaces old and power corrupts even the noblest of causes. This thought-provoking, political theatre is something everyone should see.
