In the aftermath of a revolution gone awry, the beasts of Animal Farm embrace a new ideology, ‘Neoanimalism’, hoping it will lead them to true freedom and prosperity.
A new play by Ana Gonzalez, Animal Farm: The Sequel will premiere at the Studio at New Wimbledon Theatre, opening on 31st October 2024.
As the animals navigate this new era, they are challenged by the intricacies of democracy, trade, environmental degradation, and the tantalizing temptation of panzucar – a deceptively sweet distraction. Soon it becomes evident that the appealing veneer of Neoanimalism masks deep-seated struggles and familiar contradictions. Fast-forwarding three generations beyond the closure of George Orwell’s seminal work, this gripping tale continues the saga on Animal Farm, unveiling layers of ambition, deceit, and the relentless pursuit of an ideal world.
