Press Reviews

"Steinbeck’s Depression-based views on the human connections that are our only hope of survival in desperate times are just as relevant – even imperative – for living through our own cruel times."
— Variety

"Of Mice and Men, shortly after its publication in 1937, is an American tragedy on par with the work of O’Neill before him and Miller after, symbolic of the times, universal in its lament."
— Theatre Mirror

"The strength with which [Steinbeck] writes his characters, and the texture with which the characters use language remains intact."
— Talkin' Broadway

"There is power in this play."
— Vancouvre Courier
