“All animals are equal but some are more equal than others”
There are problems at Manor Farm.
Farmer Jones is drunk while the animals talk of revolt.
As pigs Napoleon and Snowball vow to smash the inequalities of the farmyard, can the animals learn to cooperate and build themselves a better life?
In an age of austerity, Brexit and corruption, YEP return in full force to take on Orwell’s timeless tale of tyranny and political power. Don’t expect them to hold back on this revolution.
