2006 marked Guy Masterson's return to presenting "unmissable theatre" and, marking his 13th consecutive Edinburgh season, he offered a brilliant mix of styles: a physically entrancing tour de force in his world famous solo adaptation of Orwell's masterpiece Animal Farm - now recast with the amazing Gary Shelford; a whimsically delightful, moving (and delicious) portrait of the World's most popular composer, Giacomo Puccini; and Perrier Award winner Rich Hall's first full length play - and theatrical debut in Levelland - a caustic, insightful, frighteningly topical thriller.

Gary Shelford took the reins of this solo tour de force of Orwell's barnyard classic, ably following in the hoofprints of Guy Masterson. One man, a farmful of animals, and one of the greatest political allegories of all time.
