The Acting Company (2011’s Romeo and Juliet and The Comedy of Errors) returns with one of the most widely read stories in America: John Steinbeck’s Of Mice And Men. Both novella and script, this is the story of two California migrant workers during the Great Depression. George and Lennie have delusions of making enough money to buy their own place. Lennie is a little boy in the body of a man. George is ever cautious of his gentle giant friend, dangerously powerful yet in need of constant reassurance. A multi award-winning ensemble, The Acting Company is America’s premier touring repertory theater, founded by John Houseman, with alumni including Kevin Kline, Patti LuPone, Jesse L. Martin, Rainn Wilson and more.
