Literature to Life: Fahrenheit 451
Girls Write Now Office 247 W 37th Street #1000, New York, NY, United StatesLiterature to Life in partnership with Girls Write Now presents Fahrenheit 451.
This classic American dystopian novel presents a frightening vision of the future: where firemen don’t extinguish fires, they start them in order to burn books. Actor Rich Orlow tells the story through protagonist Guy Montag’s eyes, seamlessly transforming into five other key characters. Bradbury’s vision of a society awash in information yet devoid of critical thought offers audiences a sobering reflection of our own world, and a glimmer of hope for its future. This adaptation explores themes of censorship, knowledge, and conformity.
