Blind Summit are one of our favourite theatre companies, combining puppets and models with heavy adult subject matter and this surreal, terrifying interpretation of the George Orwell classic 1984 is one of our must-sees for the Christmas season.
Of course, it's not festive at all. It's relentlessly bleak, sometimes funny but mainly just upsetting and scary. Orwell's brilliant dissection of the motivations that drive people to grab and nurture power, married to a pitiful love story, has proved one of the most resonant works of the 20th century and we can't wait to see the twisted puppet version.
