Animal Farm
George Orwell's Animal Farm by Van Badham
Political powerhouse Van Badham (Banging Denmark, The Guardian) delivers an internet-fast brilliantly sharp adaptation of George Orwell’s response to authoritarian government in Animal Farm. This high-octane satire boils with the potency and emergency of a viral tweet. Trust us. You’re going to love it.
My fellow patriots,
We’re going to MAKE ANIMAL FARM GREAT!
The reign of terror is over. You have put your faith in animalism and it has delivered. Best economy we’ve ever had. Ask a lot of pigs and they’ll tell you nobody knows economy better than me. Best thing… you’re really going to love this… you can’t wait to hear it I know… they always say I have the best ideas… we’re building a windmill! Trust me. You’re going to love it. Made by animals, for animals, bringing power to animals!
