A Theatre by the Lake, Derby Theatre, Hull Truck Theatre and Octagon Theatre Bolton production
Of Mice and Men, A gripping tale of friendship and hope.
By John Steinbeck | Directed by Sarah Brigham
Lennie and George are unlikely best friends, two drifters bound together by a shared faith and the ambition to live the great American dream. Landing a job on a Californian ranch during the Great Depression, their hopes of earning money to eventually buy a place of their own are raised, and then wholly shattered in a heart-breaking conclusion.
Of Mice and Men remains as powerful and relevant today as it did when originally written in 1937. Based on Steinbeck’s classic novella, and with themes of friendship, migration, racism and prejudice, this play continues to move and resonate with audiences of all ages and backgrounds.
Don’t miss this evocative, compelling story laced with tragedy… a must-see production for anyone who has ever tried to pursue a long-held dream.
