résumé
Widely lauded by critics, choreographer Jonathan Watkins’s 1984 is an awe-inspiring retelling of George Orwell’s masterpiece. Winston Smith lives in a world of absolute conformity, his every action scrutinised 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 on Nineteen Eighty-Four will change the way you think about ballet.
