AUDIENCES at Newcastle Playhouse are being asked to pay what they feel they can afford for tickets for a performance of a stage version of George Orwell's 1984 next Saturday.
If the idea is successful, the company hopes to run similar events in the future.
The performance is one of two being given before the Northern Stage Ensemble production embarks on its third and largest national tour.
