This American classic by John Steinbeck requires a strong cast to portray the iconic characters.
Two migrant field hands with delusions of living off the “fat of the land,” George and his friend, the strong but mentally challenged Lennie, find work on a farm in California during the Great Depression. Lennie’s obsessions with things soft and cuddly make George cautious about who the gentle giant, with his brute strength, associates with. His promise to allow Lennie to “tend to the rabbits” on their future land keeps Lennie calm, amidst distractions, as the overgrown child needs constant reassurance. But when a ranch boss’ promiscuous wife stirs up trouble it causes George to worry about his own safety, and Lennie's. Realizing they can’t run away anymore, George is faced with a moral question: How should he deal with Lennie before the ranchers find him and take matters into their own hands? Auditions will consist of cold reads of selected sides from the script. | ||||
