Despite the omnipresent surveillance, Smith wants to secure his privacy and find out something about the real past, which is being concealed by the party through extensive falsification of history. This brings him into conflict with the system, which captures, tortures and brainwashes him. The stage text and production are by Paul Stebbings TNT Theater, who has created and presented over 150 works during his long career. It will be a very gripping, emotionally stimulating experience.
