I’m not going to a play or movie if I need a Valium beforehand.
Life is too short.

A dose of Ipecac Syrup is about .50 cents at the pharmacy, much less than the price of a theatre ticket for a play that makes you barf.

an extreme cognitive dissonance reaction experienced by those supposed well-meaning souls

Do 1984 true to the book and you have a gruesome, brutal play. Remember Winston Smith in Room 101 with the rat cage, containing a live, viciously carnivorous rat, locked over his head and in his face, a horror added to the other unspeakable tortures the Ministry of Love previously subjected him to.

Maybe some on the left saw themselves being projected on the stage and realized how sick they were ....

Any different than people throwing up, fainting and running out of the theater when FRANKENSTEIN and THE EXORCIST was first shown?

I first became aware of Olivia Wilde when she was in the Tron remake. A truly beautiful woman. If she is a part of education people about propaganda with a “1984” play than I only like her more.

1984 is not so much dystopian as it is a real depiction of a DemoSoros future.

Hands down the most prescient and terrifying book I ever read

Is Ms Wilde still wearing a diaper as a form of political protest? I forget the cause. She and others would not switch back to normal undies until there was some action taken.

I wouldn’t be going if the play were across the street for free. I don’t consider spending two hours feeling lousy to be entertaining or even enlightening.

I recently re-read 1984 (by audiobook), and I was struck by how prophetic it is of our time, i.e., the socialist fascism, the Thought Police and Newspeak.

the article calls Orwell’s classic 1984 a right wing classic.

Funny I have always thought of it as an indictment of leftist totalitarian governments such as Soviet Russia, Mao’s China...and the beat goes on...

lying leftists and their lying media...
