Animal Farm

George Orwell

George Orwell

To mark the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, The Strand has serialised George Orwell's classic satire of Stalinism - Animal Farm. Every day this week you can hear a new episode during the programme - we will also add each new episode here once it is broadcast.

We asked the South African actor, director and playwright John Kani to read the serialisation for us - here he tells us just how important the work is to him.
