British Youth Music Theatre

A twisted musical tail set in a world of fake news, party-gate, cancel culture and the curtailing of free speech, this is Animal Farm reimagined, with music that maintains the disarming folk tone of the original story mashed up with contemporary musical theatre.

This show will bring together young performers and musicians from across the country and beyond to share a well-known fable, retold by the teenagers of today. Expect political pigs, singing horses, corrupt farmers and everyday workers pitted together in choreographed protests.

Written and Directed by Ellie Jones (Macbeth, RSC) and Lyrics by Tom Ling (The Little Big Things, Soho Place).
