Stratford East, Leeds Playhouse and Nottingham Playhouse today release first look rehearsal images for the upcoming tour of ANIMAL FARM.

The production runs at Stratford East from Friday 7 February – Saturday 8 March 2025 (Press Night: Thursday 13 February, 7pm), before commencing on a tour to Leeds Playhouse from Wednesday 12 – Saturday 29 March 2025, and Nottingham Playhouse from Wednesday 2 – Saturday 12 April 2025.

In the year George Orwell’s political fable marks its 80th anniversary, Tatty Hennessy’s fresh adaptation of the dystopian classic explores loss of identity, the seductive allure of greed, and the corrupting nature of political power. Directed by Leeds Playhouse Deputy Artistic Director Amy Leach, this exciting and thought-provoking story of treachery and rebellion provides a timely reminder of the true meanings of equality.

       

The cast includes Tianah Hodding (Clover), Shakeel Kimotho (Mollie), Robin Morrissey (Snowball), David Nellist (Benjamin), Tachia Newall (Napoleon), Gabriel Paul (Boxer), Em Prendergast (Milo), Everal A Walsh (Old Major), Farshid Rokey (Minty), Brydie Service (Clara), Tom Simper (Squealer), Kaya Ulasli (Jones) and Joshua-Alexander Williams (Blue).

Presented by Stratford East and Leeds Playhouse in association with Nottingham Playhouse.
