The animals of Manor Farm decide that the world would be better off without the thoughtless and degrading rule of humans, but after the revolution, the animals sink into corruption, hierarchical inner societies, and political betrayal. The Tsikurishvilis’ personal experience with pre- and post-Communist era Georgia, and the Cold War Germany mixed with their specialty, “rapturously surrealist stagecraft” (The Washington City Paper), will turn this commentary on Soviet Russia into a timeless and universal piece.
