Broadway's 1984 Causing Audience To Faint, Vomit

www.esquire.com: Broadway's 1984 is not for the faint hearted or the weak of stomach—audience members have reportedly been fainting, vomiting and even arrested during the production's previews.

The play—starring Olivia Wide and Tom Sturridge—is adapted from George Orwell's novel set in a dystopian future where critical thought is suppressed by a totalitarian leader known as Big Brother.
