Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
Fahrenheit 451 is the story of Guy Montag, a fireman in a land of repressive control and censorship. In this future society, all books have been banned and the population is pacified and stupefied by senseless entertainments on wall-sized TV screens, sedative medications and information overload of meaningless facts. It has become the work of Montag and the other firemen to seek out and burn any books hidden by dissident free thinkers. Montag's world is turned upside down when he meets Clarisse, a vibrant young woman with an indomitable spirit, not willing to accept the status quo.
In Readers Theater, actors use vocal expression to help the audience understand the story and identify with the characters using minimal visual storytelling effects such as sets, costumes, and intricate blocking. This is a Dynamic Reader's Theater production that is performed in an intimate setting in such an manner that the audience will feel fully immersed in the action. Seating is in the round.
