Anette Daugardt und Uwe Neumann
Winston Smith doubts this system, he hates it, and that alone is a thought crime, his death sentence, and he knows it. But suddenly something completely unexpected happens to him: he falls in love. But can he really trust Julia? Isn't she a member of the thought police after all?
Uwe Neumann is Winston Smith in the Kanttheater Berlin version, Anette Daugardt slips into the roles of the antagonists, the lovers, the thought police. Two chairs and a trombone are enough to show the equally fascinating and frightening intellectual core of this classic negative utopia in all its threatening topicality.
- By and with Anette Daugardt and Uwe Neumann
Additional information
"An outstanding experience"
Giessener Allgemeine
"It is a nightmare that the two Berlin actors (...) show, and a passionate plea for humanity and freedom. Massive applause."
Giessener Anzeiger
This production scores with excellent actors who know how to show both the oppression, the adaptation, the establishment, and the burgeoning resistance with all their nuances, with a cleverly abbreviated text version, with a simple but effective stage set, and with the renunciation of any visual language. Winston's diary entries speak for themselves.
