tim robbins' patriot act

now it is 1984/knock knock at yr front doorfrom alternet: In his newest production by Los Angeles' Actors' Gang ensemble, a corrosive play based on George Orwell's novel "1984"... Big Brother is here and torture is us.

The Actors' Gang show differs markedly from previous Orwell adaptations in that Sullivan and Robbins focus on the book within the novel, written by Big Brother's enemy No. 1, Goldstein, who argues that capitalism uses continual warfare as a means of economic exploitation and control.
