The Farm / adapted from George Orwell's Animal Farm by Jon Tracy

Shotgun Players

Direction by Jon Tracy

In the years since this premiere production, The Farm, created in collaboration with the Orwell Estate, has gone on to be performed in schools and theaters throughout the country - from Oakland to Texas - engaging audiences with its urgent exploration of power, propaganda, and the cyclical nature of oppression.

"Shotgun's impressively ambitious Farm is a cautionary tale with showbiz pizzazz."

- Robert Hurwitt, San Francisco Chronicle

"some of the best theater I’ve seen in the Bay Area."

- sanfranciscoisweird.com

“a seething hip-hop, postapocalyptic, dystopian fantasy — and it works”

- Nathaniel Eaton, SF Weekly
