Celebrating George Orwell, not one, not two but four classic pieces come to the stage at this brilliant studio venue. Read Joe's rave review.

Hal Cruttenden reprises his solo performance as George Bowling, the ultimate middle class anxiety case, in Coming Up For Air, plus there's the Ministry of Love interrogation scene from Nineteen Eighty Four and two other essays dramatised.

With all proceeds going to Liberty and The Orwell Prize, this is a chance to enjoy some brilliant work by a satirical and socially conscious genius, while backing a good cause.
