Summary

Widely lauded by critics, this is an awe-inspiring retelling of George Orwell's masterpiece. Winston Smith lives in a world of absolute conformity, his every action scrutinized by Big Brother. However, when Winston meets Julia, he dares to rebel by falling in love. Danced by Northern Ballet, the UK's foremost narrative ballet company, to a score by Tony-nominated composer Alex Baranowski, this thoroughly modern take will change the way you think about ballet
