The Communist era is a thing of the past, but aspects of the Orwellian paradigm subtly pervade our times. Corporations, advertising, political spin-doctoring, and dreams of fame control our actions. This multidisciplinary production uses an original music score, physical theatre and film to merge the story of 1984 into the game show world of Big Brother Uplate. The question it asks is: 'have we become our own Big Brothers?'
