OF MICE AND MEN to Play Seymour Centre in July

The Seymour Centre and Sport of Jove Theatre Company are bringing to life one of the world's most compelling tales of friendship and survival, OF MICE AND MEN, from 9 to 25 July 2015 as part of the Reginald Season.

Written and adapted for the stage by Nobel Prize winning author John Steinbeck, OF MICE AND MEN is one of the finest pieces of polarizing literature in history, serving as a striking indictment of how we treat our disenfranchised fringe dwellers, our migrant peoples and our most vulnerable citizens.

Set in the midst of the Great Depression, OF MICE AND MEN is a stunning portrayal of two displaced migrant workers, George and Lennie, and their great dream of one day squaring away their very own piece of land. Together, with nothing but a shared vision of a better future and the strength of their friendship, the pair embarks on a path through loneliness, oppression and uncertainty.

Presented as part of the Reginald Season 2015, director Iain Sinclair is set to breathe new life into the much-loved original stage adaptation of Steinbeck's esteemed novella. Navigating its way through an era marred by despair, the play remains incredibly pertinent to our contemporary climate of economic, political and moral ambiguities.

Directed by Iain Sinclair, OF MICE AND MEN will star an immensely talented line up of talent including Anthony Gooley, Andrew Henry, Anna Houston, Charles Allen, Andre de Vanny, Christopher Stollery, Laurence Coy, John McNeil and Tom Stokes.
