Big Brother 2024: A Play in Twelve Scenes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798667372400)

BIG BROTHER 2024 is a techno-savvy blend of theater and media that takes its inspiration from George Orwell's dystopian novel 1984. An update of an earlier play, the action is set in a not-too-distant future in a declining America where political apathy has led to the rise of a secret organization whose express purpose is to control the nation through technological superiority. Big Brother's immediate goal is to make America ungovernable by pitting its citizenry against itself until Martial Law can be declared, effectively destroying the democracy from within. A young hacker named Spartacus mounts a one-man cyberwar against Big Brother, who in turn unleashes the full resources of the organization against him. The epic battle of wills that plays out across the Net ignites a grassroots uprising that promises to rekindle the flame of American democracy.
