The Keegan Theatre presents John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men at Church Street Theater in Washington, DC. Of Mice and Men is the first of 11 productions Keegan will present at Church Street this season, its 12th as a professional theater company.
Keegan Theatre is currently on tour in Ireland with Of Mice and Men and returns to the States in mid-October. Keegan will assume sole residency at Church Street Theater, producing year round in the space. “This is a tremendously exciting move for Keegan,” says the company’s founder and artistic director, Mark A. Rhea. “The cast and I are very much looking forward to returning home from Ireland to open our season with Of Mice and Men”.
Set in California during the Great Depression, Of Mice and Men is the tragic story of two displaced ranch workers traveling from place to place and job to job as a result of the economic recession. The unlikely friends are united by their dream of someday settling down on their own piece of land and finding a better life. We watch as George and Lennie flee the scene of a terrible misunderstanding and move on to face a world marked by loneliness, misunderstanding, and callousness. Though the scope is narrow, the theme is universal: it is friendship and a shared dream that make life meaningful.
