Prescott Fine Arts Association is partnering with the Prescott Public Library to present Reader's Theatre performances free to the public. Animal Farm will be performed on Sunday, November 15th in the Library's Founders Suite at 2 p.m.
George Orwell's controversial novel, written in the 1950s, was an allegorical indictment of Communism and Totalitarianism: a view of a complex political system told through its animal characters. Powerful and unflinching, it was hailed as a classic and is still required reading in some high schools and universities. This special Reader'sTheatre version, written in the 1960s, tells the story that can be understood at different levels by all ages.
Reader's Theatre performances offer play readings without the sets and full costumes of a stage performance, offering audiences an intimate atmosphere and challenging directors and actors with their minimal setting.
These performances complement PFAA's mission statement, which in part is to provide opportunities for members of the greater community to express their creativity, participate in the arts and contribute to the quality of life and economic vitality of Arizona.
