 "1984" tells of a world where people fear that their opinions cannot be expressed freely, where citizens are monitored at the government's discretion, where leaders are not held accountable for their deceptions and where perpetual war is waged against an unseen enemy: a world where Ignorance is Strength, Freedom is Slavery, and War is Peace. This is the world Orwell created more than half a century ago, and its prescience of today's world is startling.
"Ignorance is Strength, Freedom is Slavery, and War is Peace… Big Brother is Watching!" The Actors' Gang's critically acclaimed production of George Orwell's " 1984", directed by Academy Award-winning actor-writer-director Tim Robbins, returns to Los Angeles for a limited two-week engagement at the Roy and Edna Disney CalArts Theater (REDCAT) in downtown Los Angeles - part of an extensive national and international tour that has traveled to cities across the U.S. and to Hong Kong, Melbourne and Athens. This powerful new adaptation by San Francisco Mime Troupe's Michael Gene Sullivan contains brief, partial nudity and strong language.

| Hi, my name is Rafael Alejandro Acero Hernandez, and I'm an alcoholic. I don't drink beer. I'm addicted to chocolate. I'm a bit bipolar and every once in a while obsessive/ compulsive. I have a really short attention span. I don't believe in labels, I'm not defined by what I do or by who I do- for that matter. I'm a writer, an actor, a dancer, BUT nothing is better than being a professional a$$hole. Soy un chilango incomprendido, y como tal- valemadrista a morir. | |
