Of Mice and Men

Performance Dates: September 10 - September 25

 

Set during the Great Depression, John Steinbeck's classic tragedy follows two displaced migrant ranch workers, the gentle giant Lennie and his sharp, protective companion George, as they chase a shared dream of owning their own land.

 

Their dream is threatened when Lennie's intellectual disability and immense physical strength lead to an accidental tragedy, forcing George to make a heartbreaking decision to save Lennie from a vengeance-seeking mob.

 

The harsh realities of the American Dream are explored in Of Mice and Men, along with the deep human need for connection in an indifferent world.
