A Readers' Theater Presenation
Adapted by Nelson Bond

George Orwell's biting satire, Animal Farm is a fable with a sting as the animals take over the farm. Intermingling humor and drama, Animal Farm wrings the emotions of its listeners, leaving audiences shaken with the tale of tragedy that happened in a mythical barnyard far away, but could... if we are content to languish in complacency... happen in our own back yard.
