(August 28, 2017 - HOPKINTON, MA) — Enter Stage Left Theater presents Of Mice And Men, a beautiful, tragic play, based on the 1937 John Steinbeck novel of the same name. Featuring a cast of ten adult actors from Hopkinton, Lexington, Methuen and surrounding towns, this classic story is a powerful portrait of the American spirit and a heartbreaking testament to the bonds of friendship.

As Of Mice And Men director, Paul Champlin, explains, “We are very fortunate to have assembled a talented and wonderful cast of local actors who bring life and energy to this performance.”

This classic story of an unlikely pair—George and Lennie, two migrant workers in Depression-era California grasping for their American Dream—continues to be read and revived in performance more than seventy-five years later, attesting to its capacity to profoundly connect with readers, actors, and audiences alike.

Five performances at the The Delbridge Family Performance Space, 98 Hayden Rowe Street, Hopkinton: September 29th, 30th, October 6th, 7th, at 7:30 pm. Sunday matinee October 8th at 3:00 pm. (The Friday, October 6th performance will include a “TalkBack” opportunity for audience members to ask questions of the cast, designers, and directors, immediately following the show.) Tickets are $20.00 for adults, $15.00 for students and seniors and may be purchased at the door or online at HopArtsCenter.org.
