Overview

“COURAGE AND ENDURANCE IN THE FACE OF OVERWHELMING HARDSHIP.”

John Steinbeck’s Nobel Prize-winning novel The Grapes of Wrath examines a family of sharecroppers who strive for the American dream in an environment that raises then shatters their hopes, dreams and aspirations. Frank Galati’s adaptation combines Steinbeck’s powerful language with masterful theatrical invention. The Joad family’s noble search for a better life in a period of extreme economic distress has an inescapable resonance for today’s audiences.
