Live production
10, 17, 24 September 2009 – Gallery One
Sorry, all performances are now sold out, but Paper Zoo will be touring Animal Farm around the region. See the Paper Zoo website for more details, or see pictures of rehearsals and read how the play is progressing at the National Media Museum blog.
Set against the backdrop of the Animalism exhibition, explore what happens when the animals throw out ‘Farmer Jones’ and run the farm for themselves; when horses, cows, pigs, sheep and hens take control of their own lives and declare war on humanity.
For three nights in September, Paper Zoo Theatre Company will take over Gallery One and play out their spectacular version of George Orwell’s classic novel, Animal Farm.
Thursday 10 September – sold out
Thursday 17 September – sold out
