During the early part of the 20th century, thousands of people migrated to California, fleeing the Dust Bowl that raged across the Midwest. This play is a tremendously moving character study of two such drifters, farm laborer George and his simple-minded friend Lennie, with delusions of living off the "fat of the land" who move from farm to farm following the harvest and working for a pittance. They have arrived at a ranch to work for enough money to buy their own piece of land. Yet, just when their dream is within their grasp, tragedy strikes. One of the most monumental works by Nobel Prize-winning author John Steinbeck, the drama's skillful dialogue and rich imagery convey powerful universal themes.

"Simply not to be missed." - Newsday


Each season, Indianapolis Civic Theatre offers curriculum-based weekday performances of a full-scale mainstage production to area schools, providing students with an extraordinary interdisciplinary theatre experience that will enhance lessons in literature arts, social studies, dramatics, history and other subjects. Schools planning to visit the Theatre receive classroom study guides that include in-depth curriculum associations in addition to pre- and post-performance activity ideas and projects. The materials will assist teachers in engaging their students in the live theatre experience.

Reserve your tickets by phone. This school matinee is expected to sell out, so please call us with your tentative count today.
