OF MICE & MEN

Came to last Thursday's performance of Of Mice & Men. Just wanted to say bravo to everyone involved in the production - fantastic. In 40 years of going to the theatre, David Ganly's portrayal of Lennie was one of the best acting performances I have ever seen. I have a son with learning difficulties, now in his 20s, and David's interpretation of Lennie packed a huge emotional punch - down to every last nuance it was totally believable and enthralling - a tour de force. Thomas Padden excellent too. Great production.

Re: OF MICE & MEN

I saw Mice and Men on Saturday. I had read the book before and had always found it rough and depressing. Recently I have been helping my son study it for GCSE and still felt that way about it, so I wasn't totally excited about seeing the play but...
I was enthralled - to see such a truly warm and inspiring version of the story! I had missed so much! "Lennie's" acting was utterly fantastic, and I left feeling I had seen one of the best things I have ever seen at the Watermill.
Thank you so much for changing my view and showing me the wonder of the story.
