Hey Dedy,
Thank you for your comments,
Our director wanted our performances of animals to be as 'human-like' as possible in order to highlight that animal farm is an allegory of human based events in Soviet Union Russia.
Because of this, the humans had to be very different from our portrayal of animals. Also, our director wanted to explore what humans would be like through the eyes of animals. We concluded that they would be grotesque, almost robot-like creatures with giant strides, hence the platform shoes and the strange walks.
I hope that answers your question and we are glad you enjoyed the show,
