Welcome to a not-so-imaginary world in which truth is fabricated. Dissent is silenced. Love is forbidden. Thought is policed. And Big Brother is always watching — and listening. It’s a world in which nobody can hide. Except maybe for Winston Smith, who re-writes history at the government’s Ministry of Truth while secretly dreaming of freedom. Until one day he performs a simple act of rebellion from which there’s no turning back. This is 1984, a fully-immersive audio thriller based on George Orwell’s dystopian — and chillingly relevant — masterpiece. Starring Academy Award nominees Andrew Garfield and Cynthia Erivo, Golden Globe nominee Andrew Scott, and Academy Award nominee Tom Hardy as Big Brother. Directed by BAFTA winner Destiny Ekaragha and adapted by Olivier Award nominated writer Joe White. With a haunting original score by Matt Bellamy of Muse and acclaimed composer Ilan Eshkeri. Produced in Dolby Atmos immersive audio, 1984 delivers a listening experience you’ll never forget.
