Animal Farm<br />
By George Orwell,<br />
‘All animals are equal...but some<br />
are more equal than others’<br />
One night, the downtrodden beasts at Mr. Jones’ Manor Farm assemble in a barn<br />
to hear Old Major, a pig, describe a dream he had about a world where animals<br />
live free from tyranny of their human masters.<br />
Fuelled by collectivist zeal, the animals carry out a rebellion under the leadership<br />
of the pigs, where their ideals and dreams eventually turn into new horrors as<br />
the ‘superior’ pigs settle into their new life in charge of the farm.<br />
George Orwell’s powerful allegory depicting the inevitable destruction that<br />
totalitarian ideals effect is wonderfully told in this gripping tale presented by<br />
Warwick’s Lower School boys.<br />
JULY<br />
‘Time’ magazine chose the book Animal Farm as one of the 100 best English<br />
language novels 1923-2005. It also featured at number 31 on the Modern Library<br />
list of Best 20th Century Novels. This dynamic and vibrant production promises<br />
to be as pertinent and relevant as when the novel was first published in 1945.<br />
