Первая идея о Гимне появилась у Рэнд еще раньше чем она уехала в Америку. Еще в 20-ых годах, когда она была подростком, она его представила в виде спектакля. Вот что она рассказала об этом в интервью в 40-ых годах:
It was to be a play about a collectivist society of the future in which they lost the word “I.” They were all calling each other “we” and it was wroked out as much more of a story. Ther ewe many characters. It was to be four acts, I think. One of the things I remember about it is that the characters couldn’t stand the society. Once in a while, someone would scream and go insane in the middle of one of their collective meetings. The only touch of this left is the people who scream at night.
Она продолжает, говоря о том что спекталь не был конерктно против России:
I wasn’t taking my revenge on my background. Because if it were that I would have been writing stories laid in Russia or projecting them. It was my intention to wipe out that kind of world totally; I mean I wouldn’t want to include Russia or have anything to do with it. My feeling toward Russia at that time was simply an intensified feeling that I’ve had from childhood and from before the revolutions. I felt that this was so mystical, depraved, rotten a country that I wasn’t surprised that they got a Communist ideology–and I felt that one has to get out and find the civilized world."
