I think the NZ playhouse show was really good, the best bits being the Total Totalitarian advert and the Russian accents. The show definitely added value to to the Animal Farm story as it introduced you to the Russian Communist Revolution, and highlighted some of the finer points of the story.
I think it WAS age appropriate for year sevens and eights, however, you COULD show it to juniors, but they would not understand the joke and puns, like Napoleon shouting 'respect mah authorah' and David Guetta's Titanium as Napoleon's theme song.
However, one thing I did notice about the show is that the actors seemed to be making things up WAY too much, and adding in loads of pointless stuff.
But, all in all I think it was a 5/5 performance.
I agree with you completely Callum!
