Description:
Olivier winner Guy Masterson directs the phenomenal Sam Blythe in his legendary solo of Orwell's allegorical masterpiece, returning for its 30th anniversary. Blythe assiduously inhabits every quadruped on the farm: Boxer, Clover, Napoleon, Snowball, Benjamin, Molly, Muriel, Moses, dogs, sheep, hens, cows, ducks, cat – and Squealer is a tour de force! The political power of the work is undeniable and its inherent warning as shockingly poignant today as ever. I mean, it could never happen to us, could it? 'Animal magic! Not to be missed!' (BBC Radio). 'Some shows are more equal than others!' (Times).
