The Joffrey Ballet’s latest production is John Steinbeck’s ‘Of Mice and Men.” It’s a story that ends in tragedy — but the artists hope to highlight something else in their rendition.
An optimistic story that ends in tragedy. That’s how one might describe the plot of John Steinbeck’s ‘Of Mice and Men’.
It was in collaboration with choreographer Cathy Marston, that the creatives found themselves blending their interpretations of the classic words by author John Steinbeck. Unlike the novella, this story of Lenny and George begins at the end. “The first time I read it, I took away the tragedy,” Nunez said. “But now I see it’s about these friendships, George is his caretaker. He might feel he has this burden, but in the end, he doesn’t give up. He doesn’t have to be with Lenny, but he still sticks with him. We know what happens in the end, but I believe it’s out of love.”
