Reviews for 1984
'Dunster - both in his faithful take on the story and in his sometimes extreme but always enthralling adaptation - gets close to the heart of Orwell's warning, pointing up but not overemphasising its current political resonances. Newspeak, Doublethink, Room 101 and Thought Police take on a chilling reality in this compelling production.' The Independent
